The Effect
"If you're like me, you have performed the original Emerson & West "Color Monte" a thousand times. I know... why mess with it if it aint broke, right? Well, I'll tell you! I perform close-up in a lot of different places and, as much as I like the original trick, I would regularly find myself gigging in a bar with less than bright lights and it wasn't easy for the laypeeps to make out the difference between the "blue diamond" and the "red diamond." Also, even though I like packet tricks (small amount of cards + BIG punch!) sometimes when I would take out the Emerson & West cards people would immediately say they were "trick cards" either because of the back design or as soon as they saw "diamonds on blank-faced playing cards."

"But there is one more big reason I sweated and jammed for months trying to come up with an improved routine for the Monte original trick. For me, the whole "this guy I met" and "you owe me fourteen dollars" patter line always sounded a little corny. I bet with another performer it would probably fly, but with me the patter never really felt super comfortable or cool." -- Oliver Clark

  Great ending
by Brian from Santa Clarita, CA on 04/02/2010 15:36:18      [report this review]  
20:20 is one of my favorite tricks. It packs small and plays big. I typically use this with kids, but works with adults too. The surprise ending always gets a laugh and is an easy way to add humor to a set. The card stock isn’t make great – in fact I wish it were the quality of bicycle cards, but they have held up fine. I bought a plastic packet trick wallet to keep them in.

  overpriced
by Marc D. from Opelika, AL on 06/19/2005 16:20:57      [report this review]  
This trick is just like color monte and its 3x as much. I bought both and I think that the fourteen dollar ending is much better than the bad drawing of eyeglasses, but thats just me.

It is just like color monte. And I like color monte much better than this trick. Just save your money and buy stand up monte.
