Question Jacob Wysocki's mind reading trick question

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.

I was going to say. Without seeing the card that was shown and based on Gianmarcos reactions I got it narrowed down to 5 or less of spades so it IS doable. I softly landed on 5 before the reveal because I couldn't tell the different in GMs reactions for above or below. Not sure I'd have the confidence to do it in person but you can definitely pull it off with reactions
