Bewildering Chips
Product ID: 4490
Here is an item taught to me as a boy by Geoff Taylor the history teacher at a local school that I attended as a pupil, Taylor used mini playing cards. I changed this to poker chips and have performed it successfully for many years.
It can be easily done over the telephone using coins or matchsticks or whatever is handy to the participant and has proven ideal when performed this way usually to an audience of one person.
Commercially I performed it with poker chips and I explain it this way herewith.
A spectator is handed a pile of about twenty poker chips and while you are blindfolded and have turned your back to your audience, she lays out two rows one above the other upon a table, using as many chips in a row that she likes, your having no idea of how many is in each row.
Still with your back turned, the chips are then taken away according to the wishes of the participant until only a small number remain on the table.
Asking her to concentrate you are amazingly able to name the number of chips left in play!
Can be repeated and the amount of poker chips is always different each time.
Comes complete with poker chips & instructions.
