Before the beginning of the trick, secretly stack the deck. Place the four Aces on top of the deck with four Kings directly on top of them. Then, hand the deck to the spectator. (Kings are the topmost cards.)

You say to your spectator: "You look like a card dealer. Take the pack and deal down two piles, alternating the cards." Allow him or her to deal out about half the deck.

You then say: "Now, you may stop at any time you wish." After that, take the rest of the cards from your spectator and direct again: "Now, pick up one of those piles and deal that pile into two piles. Do the same with the last packet so that we will have four piles of cards."

At this point, you have a King on top of every pile, with an Ace directly beneath it.

You say: "Please turn up the top card of any pile. That's a King. Turn over another one. Isn't that a coincidence - two Kings?" Allow the spectator to turn the last two and he or she has found four Kings. Discard the Kings face up on the table.

"Are you a poker player? What beats four Kings? Four Aces? Right!" Make a magical pass over the cards and turn all the top cards face up to reveal the Aces.
