Coinvexed - No misdirection needed

Postby I.D » Oct 14th, '09, 14:02



Erm, I just remembered a way I used to present Coinvexed that meant I could do the bend with no misdirection and in full view.

I thought I would share it.

Basically, it was just line I added.

When you ask them to draw a pic on the secong coin, I said

'While you're doing that, you might want to consider making the picture something that relates to you emotionally, something that you feel strongly about inside'

something along those lines..

when I say 'something I feel strongly about inside' I bring my hands up to my chest and do the bend while bringing my hands towards my chest, as if to signify something that emotionally touches you inside.

I have tried this with without the second coin being signed.. simply asking them to draw a picture in their mind.. then say the line above..

They never seem to notice and i suppose you could take out the second coin altogether.

Of course, you would have to give away a 2p every time you perform to justify bringing out the coins in the first place.. as borrowing a coin then woulnt make sense.. but I found it worked well.

its been ages since I even owned this, so I dont know if soemone has already thought of it.... btu I thought I would lay my thoughts down..

Im selling off my physical magic items and all that may be tucked away in my head too :wink: not that there is a fat lot in there!!

Hop this helps someone..
