It is a method by which the magician can keep the identity of the top card secret by lifting the top two cards at once, making it seem as if only the top card is picked up. When the card is shown to the audience, the audience is tricked into believing that they are shown the top card in the deck where in fact they are shown the second card. When the cards are displayed, the maneuver is sometimes called the \"double turnover\". There are different ways to perform this sleight, many of which allow variations such as a triple lift or even a quadruple lift (turning over three or four cards over as one respectively).Some versions of the ambitious card routine rely almost entirely upon this sleight.
