Color Monte (Jim Temple)......$6.00
Three cards are shown, two have a red spot, and one has a blue
spot. The performer explains that this is a gambling game. If you
can find the blue spot, you win a dollar, but if you're wrong you lose a
dollar. Performer is going to show how he got taken. He shows the
blue card on top of the packet, then turns it face down, and places it
on the bottom of the packet. When he shows the bottom card, it's a
red one. He shows the top card, and it's red as well. He shows the
middle card, and it too is red. This means so far that he has lost
three dollars because every time he picks the card that he thinks is
the blue one, he gets the red.
So the performer says, that he accused the gambler of not even
having a blue card. He shows that the bottom card is now blue, so
he's lost another dollar. Then he says, that's if it's on the bottom, it
can't be on top. Wrong again, because there it is, now on top. Then
he shows it also in the center. So far the performer has lost six
dollars, so he says that he thinks the gambler is using more than
three cards. He counts them on the table showing just three cards.
Another wrong guess, so now he's he lost seven dollars.
The performer says that the gambler gave him a chance to get even,
double or nothing. The gambler shows one card has a blue spot,
and another has a red spot. Tell him the color of the third card and
we're even. Performer says he was wrong again and ending up
losing fourteen dollars. Performer turns over the third card, and it's
neither red or blue, because it has fourteen dollars printed on it!
This is a really wonderful effect and once learned you'll perform this
one every chance you get. Comes the required poker-size Bicycle
cards, card case, and instructions.
