Henry Evans – Risky Bet

Experience the Thrill of Risky Bet!

In this captivating performance, the magician invites a spectator to choose a card from the deck, ensuring that he does not see it. The spectator reveals the card to the audience before placing it back into the center of the deck and shuffling it thoroughly. With unwavering confidence, the magician asserts that he can locate the chosen card within just two attempts, even going so far as to wager $5 on his success. He places the bill securely under his shoe, making it clearly visible.

The magician then fans out the deck and makes his first guess, only to reveal a card that is not the spectator’s selection. With one incorrect guess remaining, the stakes are high! For his final attempt, the magician dramatically pulls out a folded $5 bill from the deck. Since the wager ended up where the selected card was hidden, he confidently lifts the card resting under his shoe. To everyone’s astonishment, it is indeed the spectator’s chosen card, securing the magician’s victory in this thrilling bet!
