😂 It's fun trying to follow him when you actually know his moves... and then realizing you're still losing

I watched this about 20 times and I finally figured out how he is doing it, but the finesse involved is so next level it doesn’t matter. Basically when he picks up the two cards he can toss down the top or bottom card flawlessly without detection. So it is literally impossible to follow. It’s literally a crap shoot. I also have a feeling even if you pick the right card, they have a way to switch it on you anyways.

It’s so crazy how you can know exactly how he’s doing it & he can still fucking trick you! Your hand skills are absolutely amazing man!

[jasonbleau]

It took me so many rewatches to realize how he did the trick the first time, throwing down the card on top instead of the one on the bottom. How slick!

dudes sleight of hand is on another level

[Supercheesecurd]

I still have no clue whats happening even after you explained it

[ceneblock]

I love the three card monte!

It's so easy to understand, but the way a master can handle the cards is just pure art.

[GipsyD]

I'm gonna be honest, everything he did and said went way over my head and I'm still on square one 🤣🤣

[abhijiththampi]

Me in the beginning: Ah, I think I got it.
Me at the end: You mother....

When you max out your slight of hand and try to teach others how to do it.

[bladeRoller]

Proud of myself for being able to recognize sight of hand and choose the correct card each time.

[FakeTier]

did i just keep track of the monte card without any flaws. holy crap im finally able to see through card sleight of hand

[silentkhaos]

Took me a bit to figure it out, but when you do, it's kind of interesting to see why most would not notice what happened since the trick happens when they throw the card, not when the card is already on the table.

[travelspurs]

I get how you're doing it but still getting fooled 😂❤man that's amazing!😂

[balazsbalog]

It's so easy to follow if you know the technique how he changes the cards

[SorenPrime]

When he flicks the card down he flicks the card closest to his palm I had to watch this like 17 times before I fully saw it lol

[timehunter]

This was more confusing than when I opened the wrong pack of cards to play with, I picked up my gimmick cards and freaked out thinking I was drugged, then opened my other gimmick cards by accident and got more confused.

[razorblade]

So whenever he tosses down a card it’s the one on top that was previously on the bottom and shown so just reverse every time he does a toss down and you get it exactly right

[engagepwner]

First time seeing it, i'm so used to the trick that I could follow it just fine. It's a weird snd empowering feeling.

This is a great combination of techniques pulled from the "this that and the other routine" and a classic 3 card monte. I used to do magic years ago to make money in college, I used the same method used here to "magically" move the red card to where i wanted. There is also another method where the spectator can pick the correct card every single damn time and still get a black card using a technique flipping it over with the other cards. Its all about making the movements look natural first and then they don't suspect a thing.
