Looking for a Type of Card Trick...
I just finished watching Insane by Andy Nyman, and it was insane (see what I did there?). Jokes aside, does anyone know of other tricks with a similar premise? (where essentially the magician and spectator end up choosing the same card). Doesn't matter if it's impromptu or not. I have recent become very interested in this style (not sure if style is the right/best word here) of magic and was wondering what else was out there. The list below are tricks that I can think of:
- Do as I Do (first trick I learned)
- Blind by Daniel Madison
- Election by Eric Ross
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

"Insane" is essentially a version of the Open Prediction plot. An early prototype for these kind of effects was "51 Faces North" by Stewart James, there's a book called The Open Prediction Project by Thomas Baxter which compiles many methods and handlings, and Derren Brown's The Devil's Picturebook DVDs includes a couple of genuinely psychological versions. There are many more Open Prediction tricks on the market too, so it's just a matter of researching to find what you want.

This is great guys. I did a bit more research and found two more similar effects by Daniel Madison (Roleplay from Mystique, and Overkill from Collateral). Seems to me Daniel Madison has quite a few effects of this nature. I'm going to see what else he has.
