Saturn Magic - Duck Roulette: Predicting The Unpredictable by Wolfgang Riebe (Mixed Media DOWNLOAD)

Saturn Magic presents a captivating performance of Wolfgang Riebe's 'Duck Roulette,' a self-working prediction effect available as a mixed media download. The routine ingeniously involves six audience members each selecting a duck, leaving one with Riebe. Each participant receives numbered strips, seemingly at random, and Riebe then astoundingly reveals that the duck he holds corresponds to a number derived from the audience's selections. While the video doesn't explicitly reveal the method, it subtly hints at a clever combination of mathematical principles and psychological misdirection, where the numbered strips are carefully controlled to create a predetermined outcome. Riebe's performance emphasizes the importance of presentation and creating the *illusion* of free choice through subtle cues and audience engagement. The use of ducks as props adds a unique and memorable touch to this magical experience, proving that even self-working effects can be elevated through skillful performance and showmanship.
