E-Club ProRisky Business - £15.00
This close up routine has great audience appeal as it taps into two things that many spectators are interested in, namely money and a chance to win some!
Three blue envelopes are shown and opened one at a time. Two are empty, one contains a £20 note which is removed, displayed and then replaced.
The three envelopes are hidden under the table or behind the performer’s back for a moment so that they can be mixed, and then they are placed out on the table.
A spectator is invited to try his luck and indicate the envelope he thinks contains the money. On selecting one it is immediately opened to reveal it is empty and one of the others is shown to have the money inside.
This is repeated a second time, but on this occasion a spectator can select two of the envelopes. Still he manages to miss the one containing the money!
Finally, one of the empty envelopes is placed to one side and the other two mixed. It’s now a 50/50 chance. But still the chosen envelope is empty. The performer says that the spectators may wonder what would have happened if the other envelope had been chosen. Well, you should never gamble because you can never win - at which point the other envelope is opened to reveal that it too is now empty and the £20 is found in the envelope which had previously been placed to one side!
You receive three specially constructed letter size Leveridge Envelopes and full instructions. These envelopes are excellent gimmicks as they allow you to produce, vanish or switch anything that will fit inside them. (You will find further routines for this versatile gimmick in my envelope my FOREVER FLAPPING PLUS E-BOOK).
RISKY BUSINESS is simple to do and fun to perform.
