Dia*Monte
DJT
Most traditional three card
monte routines are confusing. Half of the time your audience gets mixed
up as to which card is which. And remember what the Professor Dai Vernon
once said, "Confusion is not magic!"
The magician fans three cards
face-up to show one red Queen sandwiched between two Jokers. Without
mixing them the cards are turned face-down and a spectator is asked to locate
the Queen. Each time the spectator chooses a card- it is shown to be a
Joker. For the finale the Queen visibly changes into a Joker- making all
of the cards Jokers. Then to everyone's surprise the cards are handed out
for inspection or as a souvenir!
There is NO palming, switches, double-lifts, rough &
smooth, multiple push-offs or special printed cards.
The sleight of hand employed is minimal and you will likely
be performing this in minutes after watching the DVD. While any brand of card can be used, I've
included some poker Bicycle cards to get you started.
"This has been my favorite three card monte routine for
twenty years because it looks so fair, seems moveless, packs a big punch and
ends clean.
I also think that it will
fast become your favorite version of the monte!" -Diamond Jim Tyler
"This is the only thing I purchased from the 2011 PCAM
convention."- Eugene Burger.
