No. 8. Vanish of Pack

You proceed as in No. 7, catching the pack as described. Continue the movement of your right arm behind your back, and, turning your left side to the front, thrust the cards into the left armpit at the back, at once presslng the left arm to your side.

Turn to the front again and bring your right hand into view, as if still holding the cards in it, and make a tossing motion, simulating the action of throwing the cards into the air. Concentrate your gaze on the hand and then look up as if watching the cards disappear.

After a moment or two lift the left arm and let the cards fall into the right hand.
