The invisible turnover pass is a card trick technique. It is a variation of The Pass where the deck is cut face up losing the bottom card in the middle. Suddenly, the deck is rotated in the performer's hand face up, leaving their card again at the bottom.

[edit] Method

When the deck is cut, the left pinkie holds a pinkie break above the original bottom card. After this, the deck is held with the right hand in Biddle grip covering the right side of the deck while the left hand keeps holding it in Mechanic's grip. The left index finger is now curled so that the fingernail touches the bottom card with the deck faced up and the left middle finger makes the break between the halves. With the right hand covering the right part of the deck as before, the index and middle finger are straightened so that the bottom half is now vertical, and as soon as the bottom half is higher than the top half start rotating the deck leaving the bottom half at the top with the deck face up.
