If you’ve ever been interested in the Three Card Monte plot, you won’t find a better option than this. Building on the work of Theodore DeLand, Michael Skinner, Eddie Taytelbaum, and Harry Anderson, “Moser's Miracle Monte” is an astonishing sequence that feels like real magic.
Unlike some other Monte routines, “Moser’s Miracle Monte” does not rely on speed, confusion, or difficult sleight of hand. It is instead a masterclass in thoughtful, intelligent construction that moves along at a steady, methodical pace.
Everyone around you is invited to really lock in and try their best to follow the Ace of Hearts. Yet, despite your efforts to continually increase the odds in their favor, they never can.
The final phase is what truly solidifies “Moser’s Miracle Monte” as a closer-quality effect. To help make things as easy as possible for your audience, you rip off a corner of the “money” card. Yet, somehow, they still can’t follow it.
For years, many magicians considered Michael Skinner’s “Ultimate Three Card Monte” / “Skinner Monte” to be the pinnacle of the plot. “Moser’s Miracle Monte” combines the best elements of that beloved routine with a fun torn corner idea from Harry Anderson. Even better, you now also end completely clean.
Everything is made possible by a deviously simple gimmick that handles most of the hard work. No difficult sleight of hand is required to perform this practical, easy-to-do routine.
“Moser’s Miracle Monte” works well on its own and is also powerful enough to close your set (our cofounders Andi Gladwin and Joshua Jay know from experience). Each set comes with 20 gimmicks, and a detailed instructional video that teaches you everything you need to start performing right away.
