    May as well post the trick. You have to find the card. They pretend the guy with the money, the dealer, is an idiot. One will reach down while he looks away and bend the corner of the card. Then everybody wins a few rounds. Then a couple of people will want to go get money out of the atm or something and the group breaks up till they get back. When they get back, everybody bets, the cards go down, and they've smoothed out the bent card and bent a different card. They split with the money after that round.

    If you go in knowing that, you can tell which card was bent and smoothed. Be ready to fight for your cash when you flip that card though.

    The good ones dont bend card corners,they know the game and play it out well.
    The game itself goes way back 30-40 years,it nothing new by any means.

    You would be best served not to mess with these dudes. They would put a bullet in your head, take five dollars out of your pocket and kick your body under a trailer without so much as blinking an eye.

    I got approached by guys running that scam a couple years back way up in Indiana. I walked over to check it out and it was painfully obvious what the hell was going on when they started trying to give me money to play. They almost forced me into playing a round,one of the ring leaders "gave me some money".....it was the guy they claimed just one big on the lottery and was giving money away. They got me over and this guy tossed a twenty down for me and of course it won then they started trying to get me to play some of my own money with the "see how easy it is" bull ####. I just started walking away when they wanted me to grab some out of my own pocket. They got pissed that I wouldnt play my own dollars. I wasnt born yesterday and I am what could be called cheap at times and i have some small amount of street smarts and smelled what was happening quick. Dont ever screw with these guys and their game. Its a no win and could result in getting your but kicked. Even when you are at the best and safest of truck stops always keep your eyes open,your doors locked and your walled close to your body. Dont go strutting around acting like you have money and talking to others about what you keep in your truck for comfort.
