The magician tells the story of how he got conned by a guy in ragged clothes sitting on a park bench. Its a really great three card monte available in Bicycle deck form. You show three cards with red shapes on them, then three cards with blue shapes on them and then a surprise card at the end. It uses only three cards but requires quite a bit of sleight of Hand. An overall nine out of ten.

I agree that this is a great routine and the sleights are pretty simple. The biggest difficulty I had at first was matching the patter to the moves but a bit of practice (as usual) sorted that out. My only criticism is that the provided cards have shiny reflective surfaces which in some lighting conditions (such as badly lit bars) don't show up very well. A good trick all the same with a great kicker ending.
