Mike Rose’s The Grail
The Ultimate Card at Any Number — Reinvented and Reimagined
Since its debut, The Grail has earned a legendary reputation. Now it returns—refined, expanded, and more practical than ever.
Peter Nardi and Mike Rose have taken the original concept and developed it into a complete CAAN powerhouse. With new routines, refined handling, and even an impromptu version using a borrowed, shuffled deck, The Grail moves beyond a single trick into a versatile, real-world performance system.

The Core Effect
A single face-down prediction card is placed on the table. A deck is introduced.
A spectator names any number between 1 and 52 — completely free. They examine the deck, count to their number, and the card at that position matches the prediction.
- Only one prediction card — no switches
- Prediction is on the table before the number is named
- Once the deck is in their hands, you never touch it again
