…..Lost $200 in about 5 seconds

[zacher]

down at the fisherman's dwarf in San Francisco…

Finding the ball seemed so easy when I was watching other people win and lose. Of course I didn't miss it till my money was on the line.


lol oh well I will be playing poker tomorrow night at the Bay 101 if anyone wants to come in.

[z-doggie]

dang dude....

that is a bummer...

[bigballa]

'finding the ball' what game is this?

[cecil127]

three card monte played with soda bottle caps and a foam ball....

[Swinging Johnson]

I thought they retired 3 card Monte because the world was out of suckers. Apparently a new crop is in full bloom.

Yeah dude, you got scammed
The other people winning and losing are in on it. They work with the dealer.
Grab at least 5 of your friends, and some weapons, and go get your money back.
Man up!

[Spanks]

why play a stupid game like that

sounds like a michael sam type game

As soon as I saw Three Card Monte I thought... oh no, he was scammed.

Hint: "Foam ball" equals stuffed palmed ball you never fuk'in see or find!I can't believe people still fall for this shit! Life's lessons, learn 'em cheap or expensive. You should have walked on by and got yourself a nice dinner at the Wharf.

Hahahahaha sorry sorry let me update this thread. I got scammed. Went back the next day, still drunk mostly hungover from the night before with my buddy before we had to hop a flight.... Buddy stood behind the guy who was saying guess the ball double your money back you put up. This guy wasn't as good slower hands didn't talk as much.. I said $200 again, thought I knew which one my buddy pointed to the one completely a crossed the board. Trusted him and boom. Dude handed me $600 (including the $200 I put up) lol I go to leave he says wait wait wait don't you wanna go double nothing I said naw dude I'm good hoped a cab my buddy met me a block away and my money is restored. I could not let that happen to me. Thanks slightly slower street bum.

This reminds me of the time my friends set me up by saying the head cheerleader wanted to go to the prom with me so I should ask her in front of all her friends. I couldn't believe it when she said no and all my buddies laughed their asses off as she rejected me.....but then she called me the next day and said she was just joking and I really am a stud. I went to the prom, banged her and her twin sister at the same time and then her former supermodel mother asked me to oblige her as well. Thanks beautiful twins and supermodel mom.
