how does he do it?

about a minute into the video, how does the kid do the card to pocket? Is it simply a two handed top palm?

Setup: Random card in his pocket.

Spectator takes a card and that card is being placed in the middle of the deck. He controls the card to the top with a pass. Now he show the back of the card in his pocket.
then he palm the top card (spectator's card) and place it in his pocket. The Spectator's card is now being taken out of the pocket again :D

He tells a joke, HAHA! And he switches the spectator's card for the random card. Now he shows that the card is back in his pocked.

I can tell you how he does it the second time around. He demostrates how some people think its done and he places the card back in his pocket. When he brings it back out its a different card. He leaves the signed card in his pocket. I think the first part of the trick involved the man yelling get off the tables! That was all the misdirection he needed to palm the card in his pocket, even the camera guy turned. Thats what I got.
