For many years, I have been enamored with Al Koran's 'Note Under Cup' routine (based off a Hummer principle.) It is a location of a borrowed bill hidden under one of three opaque glasses. A common variation to the effect is to reveal the serial number of the bill afterwards. As much as I love the effect, there has always been a few issues I've had with the method. While you are turned away, the participant can freely swap two cups at a time and as many times as they wish as long as they call out the positions of the two cups being swapped each time. I wanted to get away from this entirely and have the spectators say NOTHING at all and not even have any idea of how many swaps they made either. Also, I wanted them to TRULY BE ABLE to swap the cups around in any fashion at all - literally 100% free mixing with absolutely NO restrictions. In addition, I end with the PARTICIPANT divining the serial number on the bill using 'Serial Thriller' (available at my site) instead of ME - making THEM the star! How powerful is that?
Well, 'Neti Neti' achieves all of this with ease! The Koran effect is great, but I think that the main reason why you don't see it featured by more performers are for the inherent drawbacks I mentioned. If you could really do this for real, this is EXACTLY what it would like. 'Neti Neti' uses a VERY simple idea to do this and has these features:
- NO - the three cups are NOT m****d
- No finger rings (or the things associated with that idea) Smile
- In fact, there are ZERO gimmicks!
- No 'hairy' issues. Smile
- Can use any objects that are suitable such as three shells and a pea, 3 bottle caps and a dime, playing cards, photos - the method is extremely flexible
- Bill introduced at the beginning is the bill used throughout
- Participant says NOTHING and NO questions are ever asked
- Complete and absolute freedom in mixing without limitations
- Participant also has zero restrictions and completely free choice as to where they hide the bill or object and your back is turned when they do so
- No finger counting or mental calisthenics
- Can be performed completely impromptu
