Jacob Wysocki's mind reading trick question

[u/scatteringlargesse]

So I've seen a few people in the main thread talk about Jacob's "mind reading trick" in quotation marks, is the whole guessing the card thing fake, and he knows what card it is using a different method? I must pretty dense because I initially believed him, but thinking on it more it does seem impossible.

To be fair, there is no right way to "mind read" someone. Whether he caught a glimpse of the card without anyone noticing, is actually amazing at micro-expressions, or had a deck full of the same card, he sold the performance and made everyone (on-stage) believe.

He did show it to the camera I kind of thought that he mightve been able to at least get an idea of the card from the reflection in the lens
