I've realized I love magic that happens in the spectator's hands. Effects like ACE by Richard Sanders, and to a lesser degree, Sticker Kicker by Jamie Williams & Roddie Mcghie, give this fairness perception that's incredibly powerful.

When the magic is happening while they're holding the cards, it feels like the magician's window for "funny business" shrinks to almost nothing in the audience's mind.

What are your favorite effects that create that same feeling? Doesn't have to be cards — just tricks where the spectator feels fully in control when the magic happens.
