3 card monte - Magician's way

IdioticGod · 05-19-2012, 04:37 PM

Hey guys, does any of you know good, ungimmicked presentations of 3 card monte as magic? The only one I know is the "This and That" card trick, but it's in the storytelling "format", so there's not that much interaction with the spectators (I mean, it's a great illusion, and there is room for interaction, but not as much as the original 3 card monte). Skinner's Monte looks good, but I'm kind of a germaphobe when it comes to magic, I don't touch it if it's not clean (aside from some very rare exceptions).

Also, what do you think about this kind of effect? Good if presented the right way, always good, always sucks... Oh, and if you could justify, that would be great. (If you absolutely can't... well, I understand. Don't worry, I won't be mad. No, seriously, I won't. Ok, maybe a little. Not much, though)
