Summary

Three presidential matchbooks walk into a bar, if you steal a match from one will the others snitch?

Setup

Brian shows three full matchbooks, has a participant secretly choose one matchbook and remove a single match, then close the matchbook. Brian holds onto all matchbooks, and determines which one was selected just by touch.

Method

Brian explains that the matchbooks can be tightly latched closed, but typically aren't. So all three matchbooks are tightly closed beforehand, and when the participant closes their opened matchbook, it latches loosely.
