I have a deck of 'Magic Eye' playing cards. For those of you who don't know what Magic Eye is, it's a seemingly ordinary pattern that, when you allow your eyes to unfocus on it reveals a hidden picture (sounds odd, but it's true!) For instance, the image below, when viewed the right way, will reveal a hand playing a piano (assuming they work on PC screens!): [Edit: Yup, just tried, and it does!] Anyway, the deck of cards. When viewed in the right way, the backs of the cards reveal the face - for instance, they'll show 9♥ for the 9 of hearts. I'm planning to use them in a friendly poker game with some friends who don't know they're magic eye cards fairly soon, and since it's only a friendly game, I wanna mindfuck them - I can read the cards almost at a glance, and so can tell what their hands are pretty easily. The plan is I will then start humming/singing songs relating to their hands. For instance, if someone has three kings in their hand, I'll start humming the hymn 'We Three Kings'. If someone has an ace of spades, I'll start quietly singing 'Ace of Spades' by Motorhead. If they have one/two queens and draw another, I'll start humming 'Killer Queen'. Trouble is, that's as far as I've gotten with my list of tunes at the moment. Anyone got any more suggestions?

Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - if someone has the Ace of Hearts, i.e. lonely heart?

Good call! I'm also thinking I could sing 'Flash' by Queen whenever someone's got a flush... I'd just have to make sure the pronounciation was a little ambiguous

I suppose the nursery rhyme 'The Queen of Hearts, she baked some tarts, all on a summer's day' could be used if anyone has the king, queen or jack of hearts

Good calls there ;D I guess, following Ninj's theme, there's also '5 6 7 8' by Steps, which'd probably freak them out on two levels
