Find the Spectator's Thought of Card by Eliminating the Others;
Turning Them All blank!

Debuted at the 2014 FFFF convention, this was a total sell out at the Combined IBM / SAM convention in St. Louis and the 2014 Abbott Get-Together. You will see why:

A spectator is asked to mentally choose a random playing card from a fanned deck. The magician Explains he wants to find the spectator's card from a new deck using a few questions narrowing. With the cards facing the magician, the questions begin. "Is your card a red card or a black card?" Discarding what Seems to be the non-chosen color, the magician Continues, "What your card a Heart or Diamond?" (Or spade or club?)

After a few more questions, and discarding the cards not chosen, the magician Reveals the remaining card to be the one thought of by the spectator.
This appears to be a VERY lame trick, relying on specific "fishing" questions.
Now for the kicker !!

The magician turns over all the discarded cards: They are ALL BLANK !! The spectator's card is the only one with a printed face!
