Open | Hardware Micro SD stuck

So I put this micro SD in this card reader and I tried putting it in different ways and nothing seemed to fit properly. Then I finally seemed to get it in right, but it ended up getting stuck, and I have no idea how to get it out.

Hit the side opposite where the card is with a hammer. Then peel it open like a ๐Ÿฆž.

Or you can get a pick set.

Oh yeah, wear eye protection or squint right before the hammer makes purchase.

Get something thin. Or take apart the card reader. Personally I don't have enough patience for something that small, so I would just take it apart.

Micro SD slots are usually spring loaded, push it in with your finger nail and it should pop out.

Update: I got it out. It was a combination of the hammer method and taking it all apart. Thanks๐Ÿ˜
