A spectator thinks of a card, writes its initials on the face of a blank playing card and returns it to the middle of the deck. Without any suspicious moves or handling the magician immediately knows the name of the thought of card.

The Psycho Deck is a utility prop that enables the performer to gain access to information written down by the spectator. It is easy to do, self-working, capable of many variations and the information can be read right in front of the spectators. 

Instructions include an alternative routine in which one spectator guesses the thoughts of another.
