2 Card Monte - A Classic of card magic

Postby kendall » Mar 11th, '09, 10:54



A Classic of card magic, performed backstage to the band Glamour of the Kill (check them out on myspace).

Ok I know it's not the hardest trick in the world. But it hits the spec hard (as noticeable in the video) and is easily one of most performed tricks.

Filmed by Amy Reeves.

A really classic trick that has been around forever!! I remember watching a street performer in 1999 in Amsterdam He was not the best monte hussler I have seen but he must have taken a bundle of cash in the 20 mins I was watching him.. I was tempted to mess up his routine but decide to walk off :P
