3 shell game tips

[kkaiser343]

I have been fooling around with the 3 Shell game. I am looking for some tips or technique advice form someone who actually knows what the heck they are doing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. for instance when I do the pinch steal I tend to tighten my remaining fingers. there are other issues so any tips are welcome..Thank you

I do the three shell game all the time but alas find it difficult to give tips on the matter. It is not an easy thing to describe technical matters. All I can do is recommend the works of Jack Chanin and Frank Garcia.

This looks promising…

The “school for scoundrels” series of notes are pretty detailed and comprehensive, so you would expect the same level of detail here as well.

My recommendation: Study Chef Anton's beautifully constructed routine. Here he is performing it at the Magic Castle.

The handling and the presentation are on par with one another -- both world class.

Bob Sheets introduced me to the 3 shell game at a lecture. He and Glenn Morphew have a 1 minute bootcamp DVD which teaches the basics in the form of a routine drill.
