A C E. to K I N G

The Magician takes a stack of cards and counts off a card for each letter of the words Ace to King, at the completion of each word, a card is turned over of that value.

Separate all the cards of a single suit from the deck (the Ah - Kh for example). Arrange the cards in this order: 3, 8, 7, A, Q, 6, 4, 2, J, K, 10, 9, 5. Hole the pile face down, the 3 should be the top card. Spell A C E, and for each letter move a card from the top of the deck to the bottom, flip over the new top card, it's an Ace, lay it on the table. Spell T W O, again moving a card from the top to the bottom for each letter, flip over the two, and lay it on the table. Repeat for three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, jack, and queen. After the queen you will only have the king remaining, spell out king and flip it over.
