2 Card Monte is trick #1 on the list of...

"52 tricks to learn before you die."

It was first popularized by David Blaine when he performed it on his Street Magic special. 

Since then, it's been a staple of the Ellusionist Team & thousands of magic enthusiasts around the globe. 

I can't even tell you the number of free drinks & tips I've earned from this trick in the last 17 years of doing it. 

But it always shocks me how FEW people still do it. They think it's old, that it's known... Trust me, it's not!

If you've never learned it before you can now learn it immediately 

Knowing what I know now, 17 years later, given how often i've performed it - Learning this trick properly is the best investment I've ever made.

Bought this on a whim after seeing the Blaine special years ago and finally decided to learn it properly. The teaching breaks the move down slowly enough that I had the basic handling down in one evening, and the explanation of the psychology behind the count is what really sells it. My only note is
