The Three Coin Trick/Gadabout Coins


Brushwood Routine
1) Fourth coin in right hand. With R hand pick up first coin and put on palm of left hand. With R hand, pick up second coin and place it on the palm of left hand and but also secretly drop the second coin. Immediately close hand. With R hand pick up last coin pretend to put it in pocket but actually finger palm it. Ask how many coins in left hand. Reveal three coins.

2) With R hand pick up coin and put on palm of left hand. With R hand pick up second coin and place it on the palm of left hand. Pretend to pass the two coins into the right hand but actually only one coin is thrown over while the other stays in the left hand in finger palm position. Show two coins in the right hand. With your left hand closed, push the two coins in the R hand into the left via the space between the index finger and thumb. Then with R hand pick the coin of the table and actually put it in your pocket.  Ask how many coins in left hand, reveal three.

3) Pick up two coins in the R hand. Show them in the palm of hand and ask how many coins. Do a false transfer into the left hand (retaining all three in the right hand) and ask how many coins. Pick up the third coin with the right hand. Say "and the third goes into my pocket" as you actually place all three coins into your pocket. Ask "how many coins are in my hand? Reveal they are all gone.

Soul Survivor

See Eugene Burger Penguin Live Lecture Vol 2 @54:00

Script
Eugene: "A mystery based on the writing of Albert Camus. Dan, you and I will play a game in which together we represent the two hands of fate. Imagine the space between us is a village. And these few playing cards are people who live in the village. They go about their business, you can move them to. Some of them go to school, others go to work. Some of them go to the theater, others to the movies. Everyone goes shopping. And then, fate comes to our village in the form of a plague."

(1) "I will select two people who get sick. You decide which one dies." Dan selects a queen. "The school teacher."

(2) "You select two people that get sick. I say this one dies." King selected. "The town doctor."

(3) "I say these two get sick." Dan selects the jack. "The little boy."

(4) "You select two people that get sick. I say this one dies". King selected. "The shopkeeper."

(5) "I select two people." Jack selected "The town fool."

(6) "You select two people. I say this one dies." A queen is selected. "The widow."

"And so Dan, fate has come to our little village and rather tidied things up. The tidiness that comes with death. But one card remains, the sole survivor. The plague itself."
