Coincidence At Play by Jay Jennings (Instant Download)

Experience an engaging close-up or parlor magic routine infused with mentalism and a surprising twist, all centered around the game of chess!

The effect: Six chess boards are displayed, each missing a unique piece. A board is selected at random, followed by the selection of a chess piece through a different random method. Remarkably, the chosen piece matches the one missing from the selected board.

This package includes a “Print Your Own Props” section, enabling you to create the necessary props using your own printer or a local print shop. Print the chess boards on standard paper and the chess piece cards on thicker stock or Avery business card blanks. You can even glue numbers onto poker chips for added effect. Larger chess boards are also provided for those who prefer a parlor-style presentation.Coincidence At Play is not only enjoyable to perform but also captivates and mystifies your audience. While it may not be a traditional mentalism piece, it seamlessly introduces themes of mental abilities and intuition.While not entirely self-working, the routine requires no sleight of hand or complicated gimmicks, allowing you to concentrate on delivering a compelling performance. That’s how I prefer my routines. — Jay Jennings
