Not quite. I had a card trick where I counted cards to get to the person's card. Cards 1 thru 9 are picked up by 2's that equal 10, face cards are 10. Had to remember the face cards and when picking up sets had to be less obvious and pick up 3 sets mixed up at a time. Could have made a fortune if the kids at recess had any spare coins!

Just now got back to checking the forum. I hate it when work gets in the way. Glad you figured it out Chuck! =D>
