Collins' Aces
From MagicPedia
Collins' Aces is a cross between an Ace Assembly and a Poker Deal developed by Stanley Collins in which each ace is covered by three indifferent cards. The aces vanish from their respective packets. The pack is reassembled, and several four-card hands dealt out. One hand is chosen by a spectator, and found to contain the missing aces.
