SankeyMagic I would, an AM, self associated to the 3 of ❤️’s. Why? Because, I met my now wife by showing her a card trick. Her chosen card? The 3 of Hearts On July 27th 2017 and married on Feb 9th 2019. (3x9=27) ever since that day we met (at one of my bands shows and I always carry a pack of cards with me everywhere) the 3 of ❤️’s is OUR card. 😀
Where do you come up with these tricks? I am a very creative individual but I can't imagine how you're mind works to do all these variations! Just amazing and simply astounding! I look forward to all of your videos Mr Sankey
If I was any card in the deck I would be the Joker. I would be the Joker because I am rarely, if ever, serious. Love joking around and making people laugh
Jay, you're the greatest! I'm 67, I knew Dai Vernon a little in Los Angeles. I was friend's with Dick Zimmerman and others. I love your style and delivery! You're a natural! Good luck, my friend! Your pal, Flint Long
I would be the 7 of diamonds because this is the card that saved my life in a way. I was depressed for something like 2 years and was once near suicide and then one day I went on youtube, saw the cartoon deck trick and the card that was chosen was the 7 of diamonds. I was amazed and that made me dive into magic and today, one and a half years after I'm the happiest person I know. And Jay you taught me a lot so you've been part of this journey so thank you!!
What card would I be? I would have to say the double backer card, because it is rarely used but when it is it gives the user the ability to get a great reaction.
you sure fooled me with the last one where you had only two cards and very good I always enjoy your ideas and magic as well thank you for sharing this video sankeymagic I really appreciate it !!!!
That´s great! I have seen a lot of Three-Card-Monte, but this is one of the best. And even easy to do. And even ungimmicked. And even impromptu. So good! And I am not commenting for the contest but just because I am excited, Thank you very much for sharing this idea!
King of Hearts. I've been a student and practitioner of love and things related to love most of my life. I believe that if we all showed a little love to someone, especially to someone we don't know, the universe would be a little better place to live in.
Love it....gonna need practice from this old boy because these hands don't have the dexterity they used to---nobody ever told me getting old would come so fast!!
I have always had a fondness for the different Monte tricks. I even adapted the Two Card Monte using other slights you wouldn't see in any other Monte trick.
Jack of Spades-I am a lab-tech for a Mechanical Engineering program at a Texas college. I am not an engineer, but I support the engineering program. I am important to the program but I play a more in the background role. The Spade supports the King Queen and Ace but is not as important in rank. The lab-tech does a lot of the work behind the scene to make sure the labs are ready when the students come into them. He/She makes sure all the lab equipment is ready, the safety equipment is in place and that the students observe all the safety procedures to run the lab safely. The spade is a type of shovel; a tool that is used when you do work that gets your hands dirty. My job as lab-tech does require me to get my hands dirty and I would not trade out the job for anything.
I've got to tell you, Jay, I've been watching you and your videos for several years and as I knew there would be a switch at some point, I spotted when you substituted the joker for the Queen with the $10 attached. Well, know, you did it so slickly, I didn't actually see you do it, but I knew THAT was when the switch was made. But, anyway, thank you.
If I were a playing card I would like to be the eight of clubs. Clubs has so many elements compared to the other suits yet it keeps its geometrical tree-like elegancy. And the way the clubs fill empty space on the eight is the pattern of a pure harmony: 4 clubs for a rhombus around a clear center, and 4 clubs for the outside corners of it. A shape inside a shape. Mesmerizing. It's like a card illustration of a human being or at least of what a human being should be: a beautiful, deep, diverse yet self-balanced creature.
This is a really good story for a 3 card monte! If I could be any card, I'd be the 7 of clubs. I always use the 7 of clubs when I force a card because a few months ago, I posted a picture of me holding the 7, so after I perform a trick, I tell the spectators that all along I knew what card they'd pick!
Jay this is a really good version of the 3 card monte and was quite impressed actually. I love magic when we don't have to use gimmicks. Love your magic Jay. Well done mate
I want to the the $ card. What ever that is. Nice 3 card Monte variation Jay. Very well done. This is the only magic trick I’ve ever been good at. I was a shill for a 3 card Monte hustler when I was young. He eventually taught me how to “shake the red card” as it was called in the streets. Great memories.
The choice is the Jack of Clubs, the very first deck of proper cards I ever owned was a vintage 1952 bee deck...my Uncle who gave it to me, did a 3 card monte, similar to yours, a Queen of Diamonds, a joker, and the surprise card was the jack of clubs. It's been stuck in my mind ever since and inspired me into cardistry...and I use the jack of clubs for slights now!
If I had to be a card it would be the 8 of Diamonds, because its perfectly symmetrical, looks the same in both vertical orientations. Thanks for the post and have an awesome week
Love your videos - and this trick. But the deck of cards I have don't slip over each other very well in the clip switch move. Any recommendations on a brand of cards that would work best with this trick?
Never Mind the choice of cards I would be, cause If I were to pick anything out from this video, Jay, I would pick your T Shirt.! Dont know want Gord Downey may have chosen as a card , but if he picked one, it would be mine. So nice to see you wearing Tragically Hip Shirt, so few people in the USA even know who Tragically Hip is.. But your wearing the shirt does a huge service to the Band. I hope others recognize whom they are and how important they were and still are to Canadian Culture... I dont think Gord was much of a magician, but he was as good a musician as you are a magician! Bless up Sankey... Keep up the good work... i love your tricks and i practice them all the time, here, In Toronto, Ontario, Canada... Home of the tragically hip!!
Your words literally gave me shivers. Ah Gord...Am I right? Wow. What an actual LEGEND. So humble, but oh so brave. His words, his deeds, awe inspiring. Some get it, some don't. But for those of us who felt his genius, words fail. Again. Big hug!
Been needing a simple & effective packet effect. Thanks Jay! Each trick works best on a certain person/group, and I got the perfect pal to try this on. I am 👑 of ❤️'$
I would be the Joker, cuz I am funny but usually left out... I tell you Jay, the first two parts didn't fool me (I know too much about card magic), but that clip switch shocked me! Great video, keep it up!
2 of clubs. It's just always been my favorite card. About 25 years ago a magician did a trick for me and it ended with me getting the card and it was the 2 of clubs.
I've been practicing this for about a week but when I try and do it live I've been caught on the switch of the paper clip both times I tried. I'm fairly new and looking for any tips or hints to better execute the "move". I'm trying really hard to distract them with the Joker that is being left out but 0/2 for far...
Great conception Jay. Consider: since the clipped Queen is a bit obvious and the audience knows you are a wily magician, they may spoil the reveal by guessing correctly. So perhaps instead clip one of the Jokers and modify patter to do the switch while "setting one joker aside." Giving them the perception of a 50/50 chance. Then the big reveal becomes the clipped Queen. 😮 thanks for all the great content.
Hi Jay, you've earned yourself a new sub ! I personally would be the 4 of clubs, as it symbolizes the moment I started to get really into magic thanks to the great J. Tamariz
Thank you kind sir for showing us your take on this..I love how you turn the tables so not to make the spectator feel stupid..If I could be any card it would be The Joker because it stands out in the deck and doesn't fit in with the rest of "the crowd"
This has to be my favorite Monte, I have used so many but this is so practical! I used Garret Thomas 3 card Monte, Skinner Monte and many others but this has an element I love! Oh and I am 2 years late but my Favorite Card is the 9 of diamonds because it’s the 52nd card in the Mneumonica stack, each year my favorite card changes. I guess next year My favorite card is the Joker 🃏 since I am out of cards :(
really like this effect. little subtlety maybe to add: if you let a spectator hold the clipped money, let them put it on the Qh. could provide an extra punch.
The Ace of Spades It's the only card which has different amazing designs in different packs on it so just like me I love looking different & amazing at events.
Jay, for the last reveal I would show the queen first and pause a few beats before showing the clipped joker, this way some of the people watching will start to think you are using two queens. When you turn the last joker over you have yet another magic moment. Well that is my thoughts and what I am going to do. have fun and thanks for sharing my friend.
I'm afraid I would be something like the 6 of clubs or eight of hearts - sort of a middle of the deck, blend into the pack, average kind of card. Although every card has his day eventually . . .
7 of diamonds because I just watched a video where a magician said think of a card. I didn't want to be tricked into a psychological force, so I changed my mind from the 5 of clubs to the 7 of diamonds and he revealed his prediction (on a prerecorded video) as the 7 of diamonds. Mind blown.
SUCH a great piece of magic and it’s pocketable so it can go anywhere with you! If I could be any card it would be a 7 of diamonds because ancient civilization was founded of 7 different metals and those metals are products of the Earth just like diamond is. Great work Jay 🎼☕️
Great effect. Appreciate the tips on presentation, not just mechanics. I'd be the 10 of Clubs -- that is the least selected card by laymen so the most overlooked, but by extension, that makes it the most surprising.
This might be the easiest 3 card monte but imo this is the best version of it. I just freakin loved it. I mean how in the world would money-clipped card change places? It was just there... and then... BOOM 🤩
Wow, amazing! I’ve never seen the clip switch before. I assumed you were doing color monte. The paper clip is completely justified with the bill. Anyway, the card I identify with is the Guarantee card because I am not sure what to do with myself. 😂

I would be the two of hearts because I can give the second heart to the one I like the most!
I would be ace of spades because it is traditionally , the highest and the most valued card in the deck

wow Very Nice Roy , Never Give Up
Roy are you still learning magic? I hope you have continued with your magical journey and are doing well.
I love it! Sankey he is always so talented, creative in my heart and a GOAT! Thanks sJay!
What card would I be? I would have to say the double backer card, because it is rarely used but when it is it gives the user the ability to get a great reaction.
That effect was so lovely. I can’t wait to learn this.
Ace of clubs...I've always loved that card! Seems so powerful!
This is beautiful. Reminds me of color monte. Love it Jay. Thank you.
Awesome!! ... And so easy to do, even for beginners. Thank you, Jay!
An awesome trick and a perfectly thorough tutorial. Thanks, Jay!
Thanks Adam. Trying to 'wing it' a bit more these days.
you sure fooled me with the last one where you had only two cards and very good I always enjoy your ideas and magic as well thank you for sharing this video sankeymagic I really appreciate it !!!!
That´s great!
I have seen a lot of Three-Card-Monte, but this is one of the best. And even easy to do. And even ungimmicked. And even impromptu.
So good!
And I am not commenting for the contest but just because I am excited,
Thank you very much for sharing this idea!

King of Hearts. He's had that damn sword stuck in his head for over 2 centuries, and he's still fine. He must be immortal.
King of Hearts. I've been a student and practitioner of love and things related to love most of my life. I believe that if we all showed a little love to someone, especially to someone we don't know, the universe would be a little better place to live in.
Love it....gonna need practice from this old boy because these hands don't have the dexterity they used to---nobody ever told me getting old would come so fast!!
I didn't have to see how this was done, but I still watched the video because your manner of speaking is very calming.
Jack of hearts because i had a eye patch..from long ago and a lover.. 1 eye jack Jay love ur channel
Wow!! Buckling to get the double Great application.
And EZ too!
Thank you so much for the tutorial!!!
Great trick gonna use this!
Thank you for another great trick with clear explanation.
Great trick as always, I would be the double backer, don't want to be used too often but want to make an impact once out of the box!
Curious. If I recall, Shakespeare's 'beast with two backs' was all about stuff being INSIDE the 'box.' #ouch
@@SankeyMagic late reply.....but....NAILED IT
Great job great video thank u very much
I want to be a queen of hearts. Because for me it represents real love and respect. Greetings from Switzerland Jay...
Very clean!! Thank you!
I have always had a fondness for the different Monte tricks. I even adapted the Two Card Monte using other slights you wouldn't see in any other Monte trick.
Mind blowing like all you do men!! I´m following you since the last 20 years and you still surprised me, thnx 4 sharing
I was very impressed with your presentation. This is my first viewing of on RUclips . !!!
I'd be the King of Hearts because I can conquer any queen's heart!
Pretty cool can’t wait to use it
Pure gold .....
thanks Jay ! : )
King of hearts 💕 because im good with the ladies 😊... I always wanted a version of 3 card monte that doesn't make the participant feel dump.
Enjoyed
Man I'm terrible with the ladies

AWESOME 3 card Monte the best I've seen, I'm so going to enjoy this. Thanks for sharing. . .
Great version of 3 card monte. Love the banter and clip switch. Thank you. I would be the joker of course. The humor and entertainer.
Thanks Jay. This is the whole nine yards. What a superb card trick.
I've got to tell you, Jay, I've been watching you and your videos for several years and as I knew there would be a switch at some point, I spotted when you substituted the joker for the Queen with the $10 attached.

4 of Hearts. It's Dai Vernon's 5 card mental force card.
Love your stuff thank you for these videos
Hey quick question Jay, does anyone know who invented the Doublelift?
Leo Lizard it was a dude called Dr Hoo Noes
Lol thanks @Mr. Sarcasm
Leo Lizard hey anytime man😂
Thank you for the trick! Awesome shirt 🤘🏻🇨🇦

The paper clip had a supporting role ;)
thanks for sharing this, i love it and I love your delivery
Absolutely love this! So simple and free looking, thankyou Jay for sharing🤗 I may swap my Garret monte for this as I love the end phase
This is a fantastic trick and presentation
I want to the the $ card. What ever that is.

Thanks
Follow you now afew years!
Greetings from geus in holland
Always brilliant
2 of Diamonds. I like it’s simplicity and it’s symmetry. There’s enough white space for signatures and i find it aesthetically pleasing
Been needing a simple & effective packet effect. Thanks Jay! Each trick works best on a certain person/group, and I got the perfect pal to try this on. I am 👑 of ❤️'$
Another masterpiece my man. I Love your style and the way you simplify things. Peace
Awesome Monte Jay!
*I would be the Joker... because there is $10 clipped too it. Lol*
Jack of Spades, because it's my initials for one. And it's also been one of my favorite cards in the deck since I began doing magic
I would be the Joker, cuz I am funny but usually left out...
I tell you Jay, the first two parts didn't fool me (I know too much about card magic), but that clip switch shocked me! Great video, keep it up!
Nice one.. love it .. any deck, any time and another easy set up to my routine ... thanks man 👍
Great video!! I am the Ace of Spades because it trumps all the other cards in the deck.
2 of clubs. It's just always been my favorite card. About 25 years ago a magician did a trick for me and it ended with me getting the card and it was the 2 of clubs.

Ace of hearts!! I believe in ONE HEART! One Earth! And one Love!!!
Hi Jay, you've earned yourself a new sub !
I personally would be the 4 of clubs, as it symbolizes the moment I started to get really into magic thanks to the great J. Tamariz
He is indeed GREAT.

Noice!
Very nice magic sir
Queen of hearts. Because the queen of hearts has been used in many magic tricks and has great stories that go with it
The Ace of Spades
It's the only card which has different amazing designs in different packs on it so just like me I love looking different & amazing at events.
I'd be the ace of spades form the bee deck because I love the design of that card 😍😍
I think i would choose the ace of spades. This card is diifferent in almost every deck so you always have a chance of see something new
Jay, for the last reveal I would show the queen first and pause a few beats before showing the clipped joker, this way some of the people watching will start to think you are using two queens. When you turn the last joker over you have yet another magic moment.
Well that is my thoughts and what I am going to do. have fun and thanks for sharing my friend.
Great thinking. It's ALLL about the deets. Noice!
I'm afraid I would be something like the 6 of clubs or eight of hearts - sort of a middle of the deck, blend into the pack, average kind of card. Although every card has his day eventually . . .
Ace of spade its one of my favorite card and it bring back memories from a close friend I once knew
How do you do the dog ear? The bent card? Is it similar?
That trick is genius I definitely got to try it out
Best 3 card monte ive ever seen!!
7 of diamonds because I just watched a video where a magician said think of a card. I didn't want to be tricked into a psychological force, so I changed my mind from the 5 of clubs to the 7 of diamonds and he revealed his prediction (on a prerecorded video) as the 7 of diamonds. Mind blown.
Ace of spades because it has so many uses and such a high value
SUCH a great piece of magic and it’s pocketable so it can go anywhere with you! If I could be any card it would be a 7 of diamonds because ancient civilization was founded of 7 different metals and those metals are products of the Earth just like diamond is. Great work Jay 🎼☕️
Ace of spades
Always loved it and is my card of choice
Great effect. Appreciate the tips on presentation, not just mechanics. I'd be the 10 of Clubs -- that is the least selected card by laymen so the most overlooked, but by extension, that makes it the most surprising.
That was brilliant. I would have lost everything watching this trick. 😃😃👍
5 of hearts and why its my favorite card in the deck it has brought me good luck
Your so grate sir... Your magic is look like David Blane and dynamo...
This might be the easiest 3 card monte but imo this is the best version of it. I just freakin loved it. I mean how in the world would money-clipped card change places? It was just there... and then... BOOM 🤩
Wow, amazing! I’ve never seen the clip switch before. I assumed you were doing color monte. The paper clip is completely justified with the bill. Anyway, the card I identify with is the Guarantee card because I am not sure what to do with myself. 😂
