Help me find an old card trick video.

Looking for a specific magic card trick video I saw once... help me find it? Guy passes one card invisibly from one hand to the other.

I don't remember the exact details of the trick unfortunately. All I remember:


-He was a street performer, sitting at a table.
-People would walk up and watch, though the video itself is only a shot of the magician's hands and the cards
-At one point, he picks up a card "invisibly" (there's nothing in his hands) and pretends to pass the invisible card from one hand to the other. It's done as a joke, but it's the most distinguishing part of the video I can remember.

I know it's a long shot, but thanks!

This is a classic trick that was created by Larry Jennings. Its name is "Open Travellers". There are many versions of this out there today.

Here is the man himself performing it.
A suplerative performance from Michael Vincent, a studen of Larry.
Bill Malone performs his version.
