    Pretty sure its no 3. I downloaded the video to watch it frame by frame. The first card he drops from his hand with two is the ace not the queen.

    It's 2 or 3, looks like 2, but when you watch and watch it it could seem that he's throwing the Ace of Clubs over the Queen to lay it first, but I can't quite pause it in the right spot to get a good look :/

    I'm pretty certain it's the middle card

    I'd say 3. He holds the queen card with his middle finger and the card he drop in the middle is the one he holds with his middle finger.

    Just had a look and it looks like number 2 to me. Very simple.

    Seems people are still saying its 2, so hopefully this helps prove my argument.

    As you can see he keeps the queen in his hand while he drops the ace to the table, so I am pretty certain the answer is 3. Would hate for someone here to miss a prize for lack of information :)

    Definitely 3. Basic sleight of hand.
