How to Do a Dice Matrix Magic Trick
- 1). Place a piece of felt cloth onto a flat surface. The felt creates a silent cover to absorb any sounds of picking up or laying down dice you might normally hear on a hard surface.
- 2). Position four dice into a 5-inch by 5-inch square.
- 3). Hold two playing cards upside down--one in each hand. Pinch a fifth piece die under the card with your middle finger on the right hand.
- 4). Place one card over one of the dice. Hold the other card over a second die. Cover both pieces completely.
- 5). Quickly release the pinched die in your right hand. Simultaneously, pick up the die under the left card with your middle left finger.
- 6). Pull up both cards to show the transfer of one piece to another. Be sure not to show the bottom of your playing cards at any time to avoid revealing the fifth die. Repeat this trick for the remaining dice.
