as i was walking back through manchester to the station, me and my friends came across an old mexican man....
he'd set up a card board box and three black foam disks, one with a white dot on.... and the object was to find the one with the white dot....
now it was obvious to work out who was in on the act as the other man was also (not being stereotypically racist) someone who seemed mexican and every time the old man turned his back the young guy 'playing' look under a disk and then bet £20 and won.... of course he then 'lost' then lost again nearly left and then won again.... anyway
this group of 'intellectualy (sp.) challenged' chavs came along to see what was going on....
i watched as one by one they lost around £100 each time getting more and more annoyed....
i watched the game intently and knew the move he was using.... (mods if this is exposure then im sorry but i dont want people to be scammed) it was to show the bottom disc of two in his hand then throw the top one.... and mix it up
now after me watching for 10 mins i was certain i could beat this guy and was going to play... but then as i watched and for what seemed like the 10th time i watched him i made the bet in my head and the chavs seemed to go for the same one... and when he turned it over to show no white dot i snapped out of the trance.... i knew that if i played, id get beat.....
anyway we saw some policemen coming up the road as we left and we turned round to see the old man pack up and leave.....
it was bizzare how this man stood blatantly on a sidewalk doing this hustle and people falling for it....
at least i didnt lose any money but im sure i could of won some....

oh well maybe next time
