@@bitwise.a1 Maybe it's worth losing a bit of money just to see the trick being done and in the hope that it goes wrong so you win!

The best tricks are even more impressive when you know how they're done. It doesn't take that long how to learn the three cups and one ball trick. But, once you've got that, you get all sorts of other ones as well with a bit of work.

The real fact is that is not just how it's done, because once you know how it's done, you would still need a lot of practice to achieve and perfect your skills.

Because it's also a confidence trick. You have to be a good con man, not just a magician

What if it is an actual sorcery, and this video is just a cover up for actual wizards society?

What about the card game like this one? Three card monty?

The player then proceeded to shoot him

Now he was earning a living the way he knows, it's people's fault to trust some random person. If that person was a magician people might pay them money to watch the same thing will you still call them scammer.

@@bald_man01 the magician doesn't trick you into the false hope of winning something. How can't you make the difference between making a show and scamming people in the street ?

​@@bald_man01 this was from a Chappelle stand up. I agree.. You can't get mad at the scammer if people are willing to play.

Lol I laughed 2 minutes after reading lol

@@RicoRicardo Same for me mate!!!

I can also sleep as well! At least he told us how to do it if he didn't I would've died!!!🤣🤯

Same

Word 😂

why are you revealing these magical secrets??

@@BrigCommander Stealing someone's wallet is not a magical secret, its a crime!

joke would be on them, I have no money in my wallet (its a decoy wallet) just condoms that I have poked holes in

@@thebob3712 Saw this scam on an episode of "Scam City", which happens in New Orleans quite often, so be careful if you're going there for the upcoming Mardi Gras, there are pickpockets everywhere in the French Quarter!

@@prophetmargin7497 plot twist: the pea is in the stolen wallet!

So what does this illustrate? Two perspectives; each one being an information channel. One is the mark's perspective and the other is an insight allowing perspective.

It's just a movie. It was in the script.

Yes! Only in the movies.

Even if you pick the correct shell, they will make up excuses not to pay up. If you push it, they will get violent. Best course is to take no part in shell games and other similar scams.

The movie title is actually "Friendly Persuasion" not "Gentle Persuasion"

Thank you

Yeah, I'm into magic and rven tricks that i know deeply and do all the time, still fool me when performed by more skilled people. Like, i get the trick, but HOW IS IT SO CLEAN!

It did not came from Tik tok people have been playing this game for years.

@@jbeezly323 I came from TickTock, now do you get it?

@@TunedRAMS I got it, but I’m still giving you a stupid thumbs down because you came from TikTok! 😕

It's a coincidence. Trust me bro!

I once saw this done in Budapest on a beautiful sunny day. I believe it was near Buda Castle with plenty of tourists around. There was for sure an accomplice in the crowd who kept playing and "losing" lots of money by constantly picking the shell that was "obviously" the wrong one. He was there to make the game look extra easy and to bait tourist into stepping in so they could pick the "obviously" correct shell. He also kept money in the pot. There was another big guy in the crow who looked a little fishy and we believed at the time that he was blocking certain visual angles. We kept walking around and a little later we saw FIVE guys hurrying towards a tiny car, cramming in and driving off. We recognised the trickster, the guy who kept losing and the big chap, but had no idea there had been two more in the crowd the whole time.

So true. Seen that angle too!

Paris.

I've watched the dealer ensuring the "marked" player (an obvious tourist) wins a few times, by showing the pea under the cup as it's moved, to make the player confident; then the heavies move in to box in the player, who then cannot leave, and they keep them playing & betting, then losing, just long enough to earn back what was initially lost (on purpose) plus a little more. Quite a good little scam.

What country?

That’s worldwide lol

In my country, when you play this for money on the street, police will come for you, as it is illegal.

@@Chr15T 12 in a crew. They have lookouts. Scatter when cops seen. Just shout youself and watch then scatter, table knocked down.

NY City - 12 in a crew, including lookouts and shills for 3 card Monte. If you were to cover where the card IS, forcing them to turn over the one that isn't (none of them are the winning card) and you won, you will get beat up after you walk away, taking your whole wallet. They do not lose.

Send me a copy when it's finished, I'm already intrigued

I didn't think about this, good tip. They must know some people know, hustlers won't let you hustle them.

this game will cause fights aha

That's if you are the muscle. Plus have people with you. I have known this trick and took the hustlers money. They aren't going to touch you if are legal armed to carry and 5 of your friends are armed concealed carry. Plus all MMA fighters big intimidating not fuck around demeanor. Those crackheads know who to try it with. I hate scammers.

Hustling is frequently magic used to separate people from their money by deception. It's kind of a shame that an electrified wallet isn't likely to be legal. It would be kind of funny to zap the fingers of a would be pickpocket.

Crazy how a fun little magic trick is being exploited like that, and that you can be robbed and beaten up for it lol. What a world we live in.

Ok but why don't you drink a glass of water first and calm down

What about the mat

This is the one I use, but any fabric surface will work.

Lovely

It’s sleight of hand btw.

@@FURYBrenton This is how an American accent is confusing.

@@rosiefay7283 Americans are just confusing in general.

hahahha he doesnt know how to use three shells!

@@FueRent I can see how that would be confusing

I'm at Venice Beach right now making 800 Dailey thanks for showing us how it's done

Thank you

"People on your tiktok kept saying it was fake and edited " ...gives you an idea of the level of intelligence of the people who waste their time on TikTok.

never gamble, all your money will be theirs. tons of 'magicians' in casinos/any gambling den.

@Vozeb Plus no there will be other people there with them, theyll use physical force its impossible to win thats why its called a “hustle”

@Vozeb Plus thats what these people do… and scamming is stealing

@Vozeb Plus its still a form of stealing

That’s the old there it is now it’s not! Abra-kabadra! 😂

yea the transfer or steal and load as its called is almost impossible to detect. but once you know how this is done, you can logically follow the pea.

Magic!

Really? I saw it very clearly.

Turn playback speed to .25

@@Jaaammmbbbooo Thanks. I tried what you suggested and I STILL can’t see it.

What if you ask them to show all 3 shells and everyone realises no peas are under the shells? Would they get angry or something?

@@gummybearthug5337 You still lose, because not only were you fooled by the con artist's sleight of hand, you were also fooled by his sleight of voice instruction as well. If you fully pay attention to what the trickster is stating, he's only asking you to "guess where the pea is", or with the more misleading instruction of "guess which shell the pea is under" - making that request the sole subject matter of the situation (only your "guess" - with absolutely nothing mentioned by him regarding his own actions). IOW, he will never tell you that the pea will specifically be under one of the 3 shells after he does the shuffle. Hence, after the shuffle, you then guess that it's under the shell that you point out, and it turns out that it's not. Case closed - you lose.

@@musicoldies83 Thank you for clearing that up.

@@gummybearthug5337 After you have picked the shell, he can use misdirection tactics and slip a pea under one of the other shells. For example, you pick the shell, and he pushes that shell away from the others and delays turning it over. Maybe cracking a joke or something. While everybody's attention is on that shell, he can slip a pea under one of the other shells using sleight of hand,

Who you calling buddy, pal? :)

Sho rght big guy real good shiii

Your hands have to be pretty good but it is no where near impossible. I am a poker dealer. I know I could do it. It is similar to the practice I did with cards. But I really couldnt make any legal money at it. If it was legal. I would do it. Trust me.
