Sandwich

Sandwich tricks are a broad category of card magic where a card or a number of cards are captured between some known cards.

For multiple card variations see Collectors.

A variation is called Progressive Sandwich (also known as Searcher) in which the locator cards in the deck continue to get closer and closer to the selection until eventually it's trapped between just those two cards.
