A Trans­po­si­tion Concept

Here is how I make a simple card trans­po­si­tion stron­ger and more memo­rable. The main thing is the glass bit. By tur­ning the glass (thus indi­ca­ting the trans­po­si­tion), ever­y­thing is much clea­rer and impres­sive for the ordi­nary spec­ta­tor, who is dis­trac­ted by food, whine and the women at the din­ner table …

P.S.: This used to be my ope­ner for many years in my table-hop­ping times. When you do it with a glass from the din­ner table, be sure to use an empty one! And yes, I always had a dupli­cate card in my deck — it made things sooo much easier.
