Magic Tricks

Rarely is there a true, easy to do, mind blower that fills time and is spectator centric. This is a mind blower. It is impossible for the spec to figure out. You can't do it with drunks, but in settings where you ahve intelligent spectators (the smarter and more educated the better for this one) this is a reputation maker. It is an adaptation of an old trick. One with cards I used to do years ago. Seeing this demo I didn't link the two. Matt has a great presentation and this feels so fair to the audience. For the Magi there is nothing difficult to learn to do. No gaffs and no prep needed. That said the secret is dastardly and you'll fool yourself. I think Matt missed an important thing, however, which I'm adding here for those of you who get the trick. The WOW factor lies (for me) in having the spectators exchange coins WITHOUT THE MAGICIAN SEEING WHICH ARE BEIGN EXCHANGED! Don't let spec 1 hand 4 of his coins to spec 2 openly. Make a HUGE deal about having spec 1 roll the die, then taking that number and NOT SHOWING THE MAGI WHICH COINS ARE BEING GIVEN TO SPEC 2 give those to Spec two. Each transfer should be hidden form the magi. the final reveal recap is that You could have no way to influence the outcome as you never knew WHICH coins were being given from 1 to 2 or from 2 to 1. They just rolled die and secretly moved coins. So how could you control the outcome if you didn't know is quarters or dines or pennies were being moved???? So much stronger this way. Hope this helps!
