“First night since January, killers forget twisted thoughts and tears,
quickly seeking enlightenment”.
Avery unusual sentence, but this is the key to the stack.
This is the stack | use. The weirdness of it makes it surprisingly easy
to remember.
If you take the first 2 letters of each word in the stack, you will see
that it is the first 2 letters of each card value.
FIRST FIVE
NIGHT NINE
SINCE SIX
JANUARY JACK
KILLERS KING
FORGET FOUR
TWISTED TWO
THOUGHTS THREE
AND ACE*
TEARS TEN
QUICKLY QUEEN
SEEKING SEVEN
ENLIGHTENMENT EIGHT*
*For the ACE and EIGHT (8), you only need to look at the first letter
as these are the only values that begin with A and E.
Simply stack a suit e.g. Clubs in this order and you're ready to go.
Once you are familiar with the sentence, youwill know the exact
order of the cards.
Example:
The deck is cut at the 3 of Clubs = THREE
I take the TH word from the sentence = THOUGHTS
| now know that the next card will be ACE.
The card before the selection will be TWO
After the ACE comes the TEN and so on.
(THoughts And TEars)
This stack can also be used as a full deck stack, simply arrange the
suits in Clubs, Hearts, Spades Diamonds (CHaSeD order).
