In Harry Anderson's book _Games You Can't Lose_ , he tells the story of someone that won at Three-Card Monte: after studying all the sleights and getting a clear read, he enforced his wager being accepted and prevented cards being manipulated after-the-fact by sticking his wager to the money card with a staple gun. The story ends in the hospital, using his wager and winnings to pay the bill for treating his hand after it was stapled to the game board.

@@TALCOLMINTHEMIDDLE Well in the context of this video you know he's trying to trick you; which would be the case for a lot of people who walk up to a game of three card monte. A lot of people who play come into it thinking that it's a con game and that they can win if they just choose something that isn't obvious. Just choosing another card that isn't the obvious one isn't the point; in fact it just proves the point. They want to trick you into thinking you've figured it out. In reality you just chose a card that wasn't obviously (key word: obviously) forced on you. Unless you truly understand how it's done; you're still being manipulated. The real test would be to see if you can find out how he did it. Not to mention even if you understand each trick he does; you won't actually win.

@Henlarious 3 года назад

At 3:55 he swaps the card with this right hand, notice you can’t see his hand and he angles it away from the camera? That’s the hand with the queen.

@Crispy1961 2 года назад

@@Henlarious Just to expand on this explanation. He switches the cards at 3:53, when he is throwing it down. Notice how the bend on the "money card" is not as pronounced on it as it lays on the table as it was in his hand. Also notice the speed and force with which he "throws" the "money card" on the table. Its because the two cards in his hand are now bend twice and are "sticking" to each other, so in order to slide the "back card" (card closer to his palm) over the "front card" (which is the actual "money card"), he has to use a lot more force to separate them. After that he needs to straighten up the edge of the actual "money card", which he does at 3:55 when he changes his grip. He does it with his little and ring finger.

@jamesfeldman4234 3 года назад

Beautifully executed 3 card monte. A nice touch that con artists often add is to make use of a confederate, who pretends to be another spectator. As part of the scam, the card operator is briefly "distracted" by something and the confederate uses that "opportunity" to put a crimp in the corner of the money card. The card operator's attention then returns to the cards, and he moves them about slowly and deliberately on the table, apparently "unaware" of the crimp. The confederate then bets on the crimped money card and apparently "wins." This little bit of drama makes it look like "easy" money to unsuspecting marks. So, when a mark bets on the crimped money card, he or she is stunned to find that the money card no longer has the crimp and the crimped card selected was the wrong card.

Than I, by accident, and there comes my love for acting, mentioned to a friend "how stupid I am, and if I got it right this time Im gonna bet big". Which was true actually.

The card he marked an X on was an ace. He double flipped the card to show the middle card not the top card. Also, the torn queen is in his hand hiding. You can see he changes it out with his other hand. The card he actually tore was the ace. The torn queen was a spare one he had hidden.

@aditsu 3 года назад

Solid advice :) I learned my lesson the hard way when I was younger.. I played possibly the worst version of the "game", with 3 bottle caps and a sponge ball. One trick move is turning the whole mat around 180 degrees (the game being played on a small mat) when the victim is looking at their wallet for a split second. What really did me in was when the "performer" whispered to me that he will help me get back my money, mixed the caps around, pressed down the middle one (which was supposed to have the ball) with his finger and turned his back for a couple of seconds, then two "assistants" lifted the other caps to show that they're empty and quickly put them back. Of course, the middle cap turned out to be empty too >_

I'm just happy I knew which card it was a handful of times by not focusing on what I was expected to look at, but paying close attention to what I was specifically unable to see.

@nomenestomen3452 2 года назад

Never bet on the card that your eyes believe to be the money card, take a other one. It leaves you at least with a 50/50 chance of picking the right card. Right?

@nyleo04 2 года назад

You think so, but no, they could actually put it there for the shills, or to outsmart you trying to outsmart them. Or like Daniel showed, they could all not be the money card

@OmicronX-1999 2 года назад

Right. But if you pick the right card the hustler will switch the cards when he turns them over so you'll lose anyway even if you know it's a trick.

@jonahdassaklis9954 2 года назад

I'm seeing a few comments here trying to game the system. In particular I had had the same thought as someone else about always picking a card that looks like it couldn't possibly be right, making it into a fifty fifty. But what ive realised and what the second half of your video pretty much states which some commenters are missing is it's not a game so you can't game the system. There aren't actually any rules here as they are literally just trying to take your money. You can't try and use clever logic to bend the rules for a favourable outcome as there are no favourable outcomes.

@nijin5441 2 года назад

@MarkStoddard 2 года назад

Seems like he just throws the Q corner away as camera changes

@autumn4442 8 месяцев назад

I think he had a spare corner ripped from a different queen that was hidden in his hand, which he showed to the camera. Idk how it all ties together, but it would make sense.

@Chris.4345 8 месяцев назад

@@MarkStoddardWe are being asked to believe that the kind of sleight of hand he’s using is not dependent on camera work (like cutting to a different camera to obstruct our view, or splicing takes for a trick to work, or using camera cut to hide actions.) It’s possible that he does those things, but I think the point of the video is that he’s using exclusively slight of hand actions that would apply if you were standing right in front of him.

@quan_violet 8 месяцев назад

@@autumn4442 Yes, palmed queen at some point between Lv9 and Lv10. I'm inclined to guess during the cut, but who knows how far back it could've been for when that queen corner was loaded into his palm. He performs the switch when he "tosses" the queen into his other palm before he places it under the sharpie. Regardless, unbelievably clean deceptions and sleight of hand.

@zaphod77 5 месяцев назад

@@quan_violet yeah. double lift to show black card, tears the red corner, swaps with prepared black corner with mark to show, then swaps it back again, and places it under. the pen. the corner clearly left sight twice. no splice required.

This is one of the best video on the subject. Exelent explanation of each aspect. They are all out of work so time spent fooling you is always a good investment. Now they have a job, to fool you. Is that your job? No you like to fool people for the pleasure, sometimes. So the level of expertise is not the same. Like you wanting to fight a boxer. The less interaction the better.

The last few levels were fairly easy to pick. At that point you’re expecting to be conned so while you might not see the sleight of hand, you can predict when it likely happened and find the money card that way.
