Method: Give a deck of cards to your specatator, tell he/she to shuffle the cards. Then tell he/she to cut out a smal deck of cards but not more than 18 cards. Tell them to count their cards and don't tell you the number. Now, you pick up the cards 1 by 1 & show the cards to them, make sure you yourself didn't see the cards you pick. Explain to your spectator that if he/she have 8 cards on their hand, make sure they remember the 8th card,( not all 8 cards you've taken out !) while you were picking the cards 1 by 1. When they remembered the card, don't tell the magician, let the magician keep picking up cards. The magician should pick up 18 cards, slowly and carefully. After finish picking up cards, put the 18 cards on the bottom deck. Put the spectator's cards to the bottom deck after that.
Now, this method could either be done by spectator/ the magician. Take up the whole pile of deck and started to count no.10-1 backward, in spite taking the top cards 1 by1 face up. For example: you count the cards backward, but suddenly a card with number 4 popout when you count to 4. So, leave that deck of cards face up. Then, what if you count backwards 10-1 without any cards have the no. you counted? So, take another card on the pile face down & cover that deck of cards. You should do this process 3 times, then you would have 3 deck of cards on your table.
For example: 1st deck of card showed a card with no.9, the 2nd deck of cards was covered up, ignore this deck, the 3rd deck of card end up showing a card with no.5. So, add up the no. of cards shown up. 9+5=14. Take out 14 cards and flip up the top card. It was the card the spectator memorized. ( If 3 deck of cards didn't show up any card, then the top card on your hand is the card spectator memorized. If all the decks shown up 3 different numbers, then add up all the numbers.)

P.S. : If you have problem with the counting backward-process, do not hesitate to tell me!Enjoy!
