His trick actually involves a secondary slieght I believe. A card force (lots of different ways.. just think one up yourself and it's probably good 😛). Maxwell forces a card on his audience member, gets it put back in the deck and shuffled, then (already knowing the card), he works his way through the deck to that card and pulls out that one plus 7 others ...[text shortened]... e have a bad memory and are already distracted.).
Great trick... lots of other variants too.

Lookin for some cheap stuff with minimal (if any) prep. I already know the levetation, coin vanish (using the Raven), and a pile of card tricks (including the card through the window). I still need a few before I start recording though (yah I'm making a video... friend of mine is practicing for some job or something... not quite sure). I'd prefer if I can ...[text shortened]... long standing hobby. I'm more interested in finding out what people like than anything.
