David Blaine Card Trick

[James Wise Magic]

Hey theory11!

I'm researching the card effect that David Blaine performed on his Real or Magic special

Starting at 31 minutes and 34 seconds he does like a 3 card monte card effect. I'm trying to find what this trick is called and if it's published anywhere. Any help?

I think that's Stand Up Monte.

I know Jay Sankey has published a ton of Monte effects, so if your stumped, hit up his site. However, it looks awful similar to the Stand Up Monte. Probably want to start there.

There is another "principal" I know of that might be used here as an original effect. If it is original, I don't want to give it away openly on the forums.
