so i start telling him he really sucks at magic. he asks my friend if he was being honest etc. then says "you had to have cheated. you probably tricked me and still have the card on you. check your back pocket" and there was the card.
he NEVER came even close to my friends pocket.
we were totally floored and spent a lot of time trying to figure out how the hell he did that.

That guy on TV earlier today that I mentioned, he did this trick you're describing, almost exactly.
His victim was Ice-Cube (the actor), and it was vouched for by him that there was no prior arrangement of any kind between them. Of course people will doubt it, because some people doubt every fucking thing they see and hear no matter who is talking or how credible the person is. But that's another discussion entirely.
Anyways, he went through the trick just like you said, but the end kicker was that the card wasn't just found on Ice-Cube's person, IT WAS INSIDE HIS WALLET. And.... the deck was pre-checked by Ice-Cube, the card he chose was no longer in the deck.
Freaky.
Seriously, I don't care how "lame" some find it, I would love to be able to do card tricks of that calibre.
