pretty sick video, especially the sleight of hand shuffling. the hustlers must have been paid a fair amount for doing those shows.

I think its a good show, but a lot of these cons are very high risk for comparatively little reward.

i have seen every episode of this show. and while at first i thought it was sweet, the more i watched it the more fake and gay (probably the two best adjuctives i could possibly use) i found it to become.

After watching a bunch of these, I realize I am way way less gullible than the average person is. Most of these I wouldnt fall for lol maybe im a natural skeptic.

Like I mean.. who doesnt know about backspin when rolling a ball by pushing down on it? Any decent pool player knows this concept.

Gay describes this show how? Are there are lot of same sex couples having sex? Or are you just a homophobe who thinks gay is a derogatory word for anything you think is stupid.
