Great effect, but the angle is little bit bad it looks like i just change the card behind my back coz you cant see the another card.

looked very good to me, well done.

I'm not a fan of the gimmicked 2 card monte. but...if you ever want a few bob..it can never fail. well done.

Me either, i dont really use gimmicks but this trick is cool one.

I think your handling is very good. That could be made such a mess of so easily.

The problem I have with this sort of trick is that is deconstructs very quickly. I think it needs more fluff.

it was on trick tv I'm sure!
but anyway, quite nice, and something i have used a handful of times myself, but not with the gimmicks, but a somewhat similar idea.. (stops befor rambling too much)
fine work

I personally think that this gimmicked version of the 2 card monte would work quite well on a "live" audience - you perform it, then leave them gob-smacked; but on a vid it's too easy to work out what's going on .
I don't recall seeing this gimmicked version before, but I sussed out what was happening after only 2 or 3 shows of the cards.
I'm not knocking your performance - it was performed well, I just don't like it on video

For a Revew of Tom Lauten's 2 Card Monte, called 50/50, have a look here

The gimmicked version works very well in the middle of a routine. I often throw it in but only show it a couple of times and then move quickly on.
