LOL... the comments are hilarious.
If you look at the cards you pick from and the cards that are left, you'll see that NONE of the picking cards are on the second list... they are face cards of different suits.
Pretty standard trick.... works on the principle that people don't pay attention to which cards they didn't pick.

John, that was going to be my comment.;)
I must admit, it had me frustrated for the answer; i even got the D6 out until iambe finally said, "ah! they get rid of ALL of the cards!"
Nice trick, very cool to look at the comments now :-)
It definetly got me hook/line/sinker the first time. Do a view source though... an "interesting" rand() function. And, the final images of the remaining cards is actually a single image, not images of seperate cards. Ie, the page is totally static HTML generated by netscape
