5 people lost the 3 card monte game on streets.

[666joinme]

i asked my perants if i could do that with my hair over the school hoildays, but they said no which kinda sucked

[dimitrizeman100]

whats the trick called at 1:46

[Isteinier]

@dimitrizeman100 More than one sleight, in my opinion. Probably an Erdnase colour change (/watch?v=qZ_RSxhaPsU) or the colour change explained here: /watch?v=VP0bZYITu2I. Which I guess would then by followed by a classic palm.

[RookieN08]

a little 12 year old mexican girl bumped into me, im pretty sure she was going for my wallet in my back pocket

unfortunately for her i had all my possessions in my front pocket, with my hands covering them :D

fun times

[billpools]

@Waderoberthiggins you should have sweep kicked the bitch.

[Waderoberthiggins]

[slytherin0queen]

ANY VICTOMS TO COME FORWARD?

seriously.. everyone should have enough sense.not to play this game

[petrhsr]

With that hair, who is he calling a tosser?

[shwooddotcom]

@petrhsr um... the person who "tosses" the cards? I really thought it was pretty eviden...

..OOOOHHHH, wait. I get it. You're saying I have a retarded hairstyle.

Well, you're right. (but it's a birth defect, and I'm highly sensitive about it).

[tehmattbookpro]

@shwooddotcom Professor JRY is your hairstylist. lol. Love your vids, Brian.

[aceofclubskid]

@shwooddotcom ha ha ha brian your hair is awesome, i never knew it was inspired from street fighter until i saw an interview with you!

[JayP7000]

@shwooddotcom I think you have an awesome hair style Brian, so don't feel bad about it and keep doing what you do.

[yoyobuck]

i use 2 like brian b4 he exposed this trick i made 40 quid in one afternoon in skool didnt even get caught

[smallfrybri]

its not a scam.....it isnt impossible to win

[godofallpenguins001]

@smallfrybri lol not if you no how to play the game. That is SOOOO funny when youre the only person in the crowd who knows how he does it. Suddenly hes broke and feeling like an idiot. HAHAHAHA XD

[ibanezplayer95]

@smallfrybri yes it is.

[chopman83]

@smallfrybri

It is most certainly impossible to win if the tosser knows what he's doing. Given the limited time, he could only explain a couple of aspects of the scam, but it goes far deeper than that. He describes the primary move (pretending to throw one card, while actually throwing another) called 'the hype' and having a confederate throw down a larger bet if you actually bet on the right card, but there are many other ways. Check out Sal Piacente's DVD (google it) for more info.

[cardfetish]

So, it's official, Brian is a Tosser! It must be true if it's on the news! :

[linkfanatic13579]

I would watch and when he does the move ill fuck him over and bet him high and be right XD

[Philflash]

F all you people who downed my comment about foiling pickpockets!!! I would also shout their codes that signaled the arrival of the police!!!

[TheClush]

The tosser... hehehehe.

[foxtrot106]

oh u perv!! lol ........tosser...that is pretty funny

[molpr]

this guys a complete idiot........there are SO MANY DIFFERENT variations to the 3 card monty....not just this one

[chopman83]

@molpr

There are many other variations, but this was on local news and he was obviously given very limited time. I think he did a tremendous job, under the circumstances.

[sarahfranco79]

This "Magician" has it all wrong!!!

Ignorance is bliss I guess

[UnknownMagician93]

"magician" yeah right...

he sucks

[ps3loverguy]

PS3 loverboy Likes this

[UnknownMagician93]

yeaaaaaaaaa.... about that...

[chopman83]

@sarahfranco79

I'm curious...how does he have it all wrong?

[kcg5000]

some magician, giving away this stuff

[illshowthem296]

he shows a lot more scams just search scam  school or brian brushwood

[Philflash]

I have foiled many pickpockets around these games.

[UnknownMagician93]

want a cookie

[kumquatspecial]

In England, 'Tosser' means 'Wanker' so this video was hilarious

[JohnnyRigman]

yea haha, ''the tosser tells you to follow a card''

[chuckbuntz]

i agree

[zab666]

"And sometimes the tosser even has an accomplice....called 'the cunt'"

[Mdroudian]

The monti is the best way to scam a scammer. Before you even start the game make sure the dealer or the guy messin with the cards will allow only one bet (Your bet; if he doesnt call him out) and no other after you put down your money. Pick the right card and tell the scammer... "Thanks for the dinner" then DO NOT GIVE HIM A SECOND CHANCE! That pisses em off. It takes practice to follow the right card but when you get it down; you can PWN the dealer:D I have done this successfully.

[conrad1on]

I'm surprised that people are still falling for this one, but then people still play the lottery don't they?

[yoyobuck]

man i hate you ive done this trick for ages and there are genuine people out there who do make fair

not saying im one of them

[soothsayer0]

when i was just a kid, i passed by a 3 card monte setup near times square. there a japanese businessman/tourist was playing 3 card monte to the chagrin of his wife. he took out a huge roll of hundred dollar bills, and kept playing, but suddenly a tall black man jumped out from the crowd, picked him up 5 feet into the air and slammed him face first into the ground in a violent robbery. oh my god...

[pimpmyride666]

Why didn't the operator use a mexican/switch turnover against him if his bet was on the right card? 3 card monte gangs don't want you to believe you were cheated!

[Philflash]

Those tourists looked like antelope getting stalked by the Hyenas!

[ev1lcupcak3]

IF the girl that lost would have WON she wouldnt have said anything, she just told the police cuz she felt stupid she lost and she was thinking"if i go down ur going down too"

serves her right for trying to get free money

[lommon]

this guy eats fire i saw him on the food network lol

[acebrawler73]

I did this at school with permission for an economics project. Everyone in the class had to provide a good or service and I asked my teacher if I could do a one game casino. He wanted the project to be a real as possible so he said yes (since there are casino's in real life he wanted that aspect of economics in the projec). He just said as long as it was possible for them to win. So i let somebody win about every five times. And yes we used real money and yes i am a magician.

[crapi4got]

the edrnase change in 1:47 was crazy.

[fizified]

Enlightening!

[nrvslaaftr]
