A Classic Street Game, Reinvented with a Magical Twist
Inspired by the classic street scam Disk Monte, Jeki Yoo's Coaster Monte brings a fresh, interactive spin to this timeless game of deception. Designed for ease and impact, Coaster Monte captivates any audience with its surprising and memorable climax.
The Concept:
With three specially designed coasters-one red and two blue, each styled like poker chips-spectators are challenged to find the elusive red coaster. Despite their close watch and best guesses, the red coaster is never where they expect.
The Climax:
In the final phase, Jeki raises the stakes by placing a poker chip directly on the red coaster, allowing spectators to follow it visually. But in a final twist, the red coaster still ends up in a completely unexpected spot, leaving audiences in astonishment.
Why Coaster Monte?
Coaster Monte isn't just a trick; it's a full routine. Compact, easy to perform, and visually compelling, it brings a sense of wonder and fun to any magic show.
Key Features:
Compact Design: The set comes in a sleek tin case, making it perfect for carrying and performing anywhere. It's ideal for walkaround performances where portability matters.
Purposeful Design: With a natural look of coasters, it blends seamlessly into casual settings, such as bars or gatherings, allowing you to weave stories about gambling or street cons.
Easy Handling: Thanks to the specially designed gimmick, the routine is simple to perform, even for magicians with limited experience in sleight of hand.
Surprising Climax: The routine builds anticipation as the audience follows the coasters, only to be shocked when the red coaster is revealed in an unexpected location.
Play Big, Engage More: Coaster Monte allows for a wider audience than traditional routines like Three-Card Monte or the Three-Shell Game. Its larger props make it perfect for parlor shows or small stage performances.
Interactive and Engaging: The routine involves the audience in an entertaining challenge, asking them to find the red coaster. This interactive element keeps them invested in the outcome, heightening the sense of mystery and fun.
Quick Reset: Practical for real-world performances, Coaster Monte resets in seconds, allowing you to perform back-to-back for different groups without any downtime.
