    my friend is plain cloth officer , he dosent look like a cop at all. and he saw someone playing 3 card and there was a large group around him getting scammed. he acted like a stupid player and lost a few hands. after about the 5th game instead of pulling out money he pulled out handcuffs made the guy pay back every single dollar he took then took him to jail.

    There is a way to easily scam the Pea Men. First Approach with your wallet open and place your money whilst subtly exposing a large pile of some worthless cheap currency in your wallet. This will tempt them into letting you win your first Bet/s in order to extract the whole lot from you. Place your money, win, then thank them for their time and walk away. Be sure you don't get followed.

    I watched one of my friends in NY lose ALL OF HIS MONEY on this game! I kept telling him "it's a scam." He's from Japan, so it was all new to him. He had no money to pay for his rent or food after this.

    I fell for this game once in Philly but with playing cards. They had a guy who would stand next to you constantly annoying you so you had trouble paying attention. in my defense I was only 15 and I never payed again.

    Just a theory to actually win: stay afar from the dealer and watch his games to see who wins and identify the shill. once you figure it out, approach the game and follow the "money" card. Then take a 50/50 shot at the other 2 cards. The scam often goes in such a way that the shill will raise the bet if you select a correct card, so since you know who it is, if they raise, you can often guarantee that you've selected the winning card. So simply keep pushing the bet until it goes to a point where the shill can't challenge. In theory, couldn't it work? If you can read the shill as you would in poker, then there might even be a better chance since they could raise on a wrong card. All while that is happening, carry as little valuables and put what u have in one pocket and keep your hand always on the items whilst inside the pocket. This would guarantee that you wouldn't get pickpocketed and even the dealer will have to cap the bids at a certain point so if you can guestimate that max cap and almost jump right to it, the shill can't exactly bet any higher since the dealer won't be able to pay out. then in theory, you should be able to win

      Then a lookout shouts "COPS!" and everyone packs up and leaves. You can never win. (They might let you "win" the first few times to sucker you in and start betting high, when the real scam starts, but that's not a guarantee and sometimes they'll scam you on the first go) If you're on to it they'll abort the game and try again later in hopes they find a mark they can swindle.

  • @ravin5798
    @ravin5798 5 років тому +6

    Learn the game, learn the trick, get out there and play. And remember. Only play if you get to flip the card. Here's some more info.
    When you're going to place your bet and choose. Make it a surprise. Don't let them know you will be placing a bet. And if you ever place and bet and they start to shuffle the cards again.... Call him out and withdraw your bet. He shouldn't be doing that. After "if" you're able to win 1. Leave and go about your day (watch for anyone at the game following you)
    If he still somehow pulls a stunt against what I've told you. Yell and get angry to give back your money. Always play with caution and never bet more than you're willing to lose over the experiment.

    • @chinggis_khagan
      @chinggis_khagan 3 роки тому +1

      There are different variations on the scam. Sometimes they will use slight-of-hand when revealing the cards, so whichever you pick, it's always somehow the wrong one. You can never win, and even if you somehow outsmart them, one of them will just follow you to an alley and get your winnings back that way

    • @oslvideo
      @oslvideo  6 років тому +1

      They break up the game regularly anyway, and walk away. E.g., when the police arrives or if someone is to nosey. So if someone actually did guess the right disc, they could create a diversion and walk away.

    • @GavTatu

    • @oslvideo
      @oslvideo  6 років тому +2

      If you did bet on the right disc, another option is that someone from the crew overbids you and bets even more on another disc. Or create a diversion, cancelling the game.
      It is important to keep in mind that these people don't run a business, they run a scam. They don't expect to meet their customers ever again.

    @alexandrumacedon291 5 років тому +3

    The scam is with the ball when they put the ball in their hand, and whatever you pick is wrong. In this case, this is not a scam, since the winning disc is there. You can actually win, but you wont because if you pic the right one, someone who is with them will bet more.

      Your comment Is what a person would say who fell for the scam.. If you follow it correctly and notice the top deal and guess the right one, another person (who is in on it) places a higher bet which overrules yours and wins the money. The scam is made so an innocent person will never win.
