Description
This is the German release of Per Clausen’s Prediction Chips released by Eckhard Boettcher that I purchased from Willi Wessel. It is almost the same, but the symbol that shows which chip was predicted is a embossed smiley face instead of a cross or a signature.
Willi even wrote some English instructions because he said even he could not understand the German instructions. Willi also suggests omitting the mirror “gag” as he thinks it is too weak, and I agree with him 🙂
Effect: Bring out a long black jewelry box, the type that a diamond necklace might come in. Open the box and show five beautiful brass poker chips. Each chip is inlaid with a different color. There’s red, blue, yellow, green and black. Explain that you have already made a prediction. The prediction is attached to the bottom of the jewelry box. A spectator is given an absolutely free choice of any of the five chips. They can even change their mind if they wish. Let’s say they choose blue.
Stack the chips so the blue chip is at the top. Turn over the box to show your prediction. It’s a mirror! In the mirror is the reflection of the blue chip! Wow!! The audience will be absolutely unimpressed. But, wait, there’s more! Turn the five poker chips over. The back of each chip is white, except for the freely selected chip. Embossed on the back of the selected chip is a Smiley Face.
The audience will go nuts. And, you can immediately hand the chips out for inspection.
