Simpatico Plus by David Regal
Penguin Magic
Some tricks fool people.
Simpatico Plus makes people feel something—and that’s why it stays with them.
David Regal understands that method alone isn’t enough. A trick becomes unforgettable when it creates a moment between people, not just a mystery in the cards. Simpatico does exactly that. It’s clean, reliable, and beautifully structured—but the real magic is how it quietly links two spectators in a shared impossibility they’ll talk about long after you’re gone.
David puts it plainly: “I’ve performed this about 1,000 times.”
That kind of confidence only comes from real-world mileage.
Here’s the experience:
A card is freely selected and lost in the deck.
Another spectator names any number between 1 and 52.
They deal down to that number themselves and push one card aside.
You don’t guide.
You don’t correct.
You don’t touch.
The cards on either side are shown… and the card they isolated is revealed to be the original selection.
It lands hard because every meaningful decision belongs to the audience. The handling leaves nothing to backtrack, nothing to reconstruct, and no suspicious moments to cling to. It just feels right.
Why Simpatico Plus stands out:
- A truly practical Card at Any Number
- Spectators make all the key choices
- No procedural clutter or awkward counting
- Two complete, audience-tested routines included
- Built on insights from hundreds of real performances
This isn’t a “move-forward-and-hope” trick. It’s a polished, confident piece designed to work under pressure, for real people, in real conditions.
If you want a card effect that feels effortless, personal, and quietly devastating, Simpatico Plus earns its place at the center of your set.
