hope u understand.
i think the trick u meant is:
Description: A spectator chooses a card from three columns and is then led through several steps that seem to make him (or her) find his own card from piles of face down cards.
1. Deal three cards face up in a horizontal row. Continue dealing three cards across, overlapping the cards so that they are all visible, until you have three vertical columns of seven cards each.
2. Ask the spectator to choose one of the cards mentally and tell you only its column.
3. Square up the columns one at a time (without disarranging their order) and assemble them in your hand so that the pile with the spectator's card is between the other two.
4. Deal the cards across again into three columns.
5. Ask the spectator again in which column his card appears.
6. As in step 3, assemble the deck with the spectator's pile between the other two piles.
7. Repeat steps 4 through 6 once more.
8. The spectator's card is now the 11th card from the top of the pack.
note. when u deal out the cards make sure the 21 cards are face down, when u deal them turn them face up as you go along
