Description: Nick Trost's Australian Aces is quite possibly the best monte on the market! You openly display four cards (three Aces of Diamonds and an Ace of Clubs). You then ask the spectator to follow the black Ace. To make things easier for the spectator, you remove one of the red aces and set it aside, face down on the table. You show the remaining cards (two red Aces and a black Ace) in your hands. Next, the black Ace is put between the other two red Aces. The spectator fails to follow the black Ace because when the three cards are shown, they're ALL RED ACES and the black Ace is now on the table! The entire routine is repeated-but again the spectator cannot follow the Black Ace because it has ended up back on the table!! Now for the best part! The third time the spectator guesses the black Ace is on the table, but it's really a red ace. and the other three red ace cards are now ALL BLACK ACES! Easy to learn Easy to perform All Gimmicks included Online instructions Printed by USPCC.

In search of the Giant Snow Monster-a great sucker trick with a surprise punch! You show five cards blank on both sides (snow) and a sixth card with a picture of a strange footprint-Bigfoot! The Bigfoot card is mixed in with the blanks and the spectator tries to "track down" Bigfoot by selecting a card. The chosen card is turned over and sure enough, he's found Bigfoot! Amazing! The spectator tries again, and you triumphantly show the face of the selected card stating that the spectator has again tracked down Bigfoot!! However, the spectator points out that it is a blank card! "I don't know how you missed. You must have gone snow-blind!" you say as you show the rest of the packet is now all Bigfoot cards!

Two red Threes for Canasta ? The Ten of Diamonds and the Two of Spades (Big and Little Casino) for Casino ? An Ace and Ten - 21 - for Blackjack The face of one card then vanishes leaving a five-card Poker hand.
