This is my version of the classic 3 card Monte with a surprise twist. You show three cards two black cards and one red card that is in between the black cards you tell them to keep their eye on the red card you lay the red card face down and then proceed to lay the other two cards face down you give them a simple little mix up having the person try to locate the red card just when they think they know where the red card is you have them turn it over and to their surprise and amazement the rd card has changed to a completely different card that was never there in the beginning you can then turn all the cards over and show them to be ordinary front and back and the card they were looking for is no longer there and has changed into a completely different card
