Chapter 98 You Did It First
"Guess three" is the same as "gold inlaid with jade".

It's a classic scam that's been around for years.

And in terms of the number of people who have been deceived, the former is more. It is conservatively estimated that the number of people who have been deceived over the years has exceeded tens of millions.

Even today, there are still many people who are deceived by this, and thus get on top.

Some people are anxious to lose, and even ask friends and family to borrow money to continue playing.

There are many variants of the "guess three" scam, but in essence they are all tricks.

If the people involved can't see the opponent's tricks, then this is a game that seems to be beneficial to them, but in fact has no chance of winning.

Some people's trick is to use prop cards.

Some rely on pure techniques to make thousands of money.

For example, the dealer does not open and show the three cards to the crowd when they are placed on the table.

Instead, after stacking the three cards neatly, hold them in the left hand.

The way to hold the cards is to put the thumb straight on the left side of the card, the index finger on the top of the card, and the other three fingers on the right side of the card.

When showing it to everyone, the thumb will use a little force, then use the little thumb to point out two cards, and then open them with the right hand.

In this way, the first card is displayed on the surface, but in fact two cards are turned over at one time, that is, the displayed card is the second card.

And Zhou Nan has already seen that the young man used another way of making a move, which was also purely gimmick.

The top card of the three cards is held by the young man with the thumb and middle finger of his right hand.

The two cards at the bottom were grasped with the thumb and ring finger on the right side of the upper and lower sides of the playing cards.

When throwing out the first card, the young man let go of his ring finger, and the bottom card was dealt.

When sending the second photo, it was the middle finger that was released.

So what is actually thrown is the top card.

A pure technique like this requires a high level of proficiency and speed for the user, otherwise it will be obvious.

On the contrary, the more natural the whole method is, the more it can prove the person's extraordinary skills.

Therefore, Zhou Nan also saw that the other party should have put in a lot of effort in this area, and he was an old hand.

now.

When the Ace of Spades in the middle is turned over.

Immediately there was a burst of discussion at the scene.

"What's going on here, I just saw that the card on the side is the Ace of Spades, how could it be like this!"

"Me too! Could it be my presbyopia!"

"It's strange, it's so strange! That young man's speed of changing cards is not fast, I actually got it wrong too!"

"."

At first, the uncles and aunts felt that they had read it wrong.

But after hearing that the people around them also guessed wrong, they became suspicious.

Because even if you read it wrong, then not everyone will get it wrong!
Then they began to rejoice that they did not participate in this activity just now, otherwise they would lose 50 yuan.

Fortunately, there was a gust of wind and the card in the middle was blown away!
Good luck!
at this time.

A trace of doubt flashed in the young man's eyes, and then he stared at Zhou Nan.

Just as Zhou Nan guessed, he is a veteran.

At first the young man learned magic tricks, but once when he was performing escape tricks, there was something wrong with the glass case of the props, and a screw got stuck.

Therefore, it took him more than a minute or two longer than expected to break free, and he did not break free until more than 30 seconds after the water filled the glass cabinet. At that time, his companions were ready to smash the tank.

That is, from this time on.

The young man felt that this job was really stupid, and he couldn't earn much money after exhausting himself, so he chose to change his career.

Just a while ago, he also set up a game, found four accomplices, and won 10,000+ in a small casino.

However, this kind of game is formed once every six months at most. After winning money, it is estimated that these few people have been noticed, and those casinos will also share the list and monitoring with each other.

After a period of rest.

Part of the young man's money was also spent.

Preparing for a rainy day, he found someone to make some extra money through this street trick.

After thinking about it for a while, the young man didn't have a definite answer in his mind.

Just now, his attention was all on the money Zhou Nan put on the table.

That's why the young man couldn't be sure whether Zhou Nan, who was the only one close to these cards, took the initiative to flip this card.

After seeing Zhou Nan's blank expression, the young man was more inclined to the former at the moment.

After all, to complete the operation of turning over a card, the range of movements is definitely not small.

Even if his attention wasn't on the card in the middle, he could still notice something was wrong even with his peripheral vision.

But just now, he didn't notice the whole process until he saw the card in the middle turned over.

After such a show, the onlookers at the scene must not dare to play, and all the foreplay I made was in vain.

So this time, not only could he not cheat a dime, but he even lost the entrusted extra fee, as well as the oil and rice Zhou Nan won in the first game.

Thinking of this, a wave of anger rose from the young man's heart.

He pointed at Zhou Nan and said, "Handsome guy, what do you think about this matter!"

"Couldn't you put the money down a little bit, and you'll have to slap it once, blowing away the cards next to you!"

Zhou Nan looked innocent: "I didn't expect this, and it's partly because of you, you put the three cards too close together."

The young man was speechless for a moment.

Even at a certain moment, he actually felt that this made sense.

He glanced at the table. Although these three cards were slightly bent inwards, it was not easy to be blown over, but they were indeed a little closer.

The young man made a silent note of this in his heart, and decided to improve next time.

But now he wants to stop the loss. Since it is difficult to cheat money from those old men and aunts, he must not let this person in front of him go.

The young man said: "Anyway, you knocked over the cards, you have to admit that, right?"

"In addition to the 50 yuan you have to give me, you have to pay some money."

Zhou Nan actually wanted to give him some money when he heard that, after all, the police were almost here.

At that time, my own money will be returned to my hands soon, and these two scammers may still be detained.

But if you do this, it will be a bit strange from the behavior point of view.

After all, a normal person would not hear the other party's words, so he would follow the other party's wishes and pay willingly.

Zhou Nan said: "The 50 yuan can be given to you, because I did guess wrong."

"But it's a little unreasonable for you to lose money."

"At worst, I'll play two more rounds with you."

Hearing this, the young man thought it was okay, and was just about to agree.

But when he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

Didn't the person in front of him guess wrong?

People who are more shrewd and cautious will not choose to continue playing so readily, right?
Although it is not ruled out that the other party is a rich man, he doesn't care about the fifty, one hundred, or just a person with no mind.

But because of the accident just happened, the young man still became suspicious.

He began to have some doubts, whether the person in front of him saw his tricks.

After thinking about it for a moment.

In order to be safe, he said, "Handsome guy, why don't we play a different game."

"This kind of play may be too difficult for you. I just changed the card a little faster, and some of you guessed wrong."

Zhou Nan pretended to think for a while after hearing this, and then said, "Tell me first, let me think about it."

The young man saw that there was something going on, so he was happy from the bottom of his heart.

Picking up the deck of poker on the table and showing a wave of fancy shuffling, the left hand holding the cards pressed and flicked, and the playing cards flew from the left hand to the right hand, with a crackling sound.

Then the young man said: "I was here to deliver benefits today, why don't you play like this."

"I'll turn my back later and let my friend choose one at random, and then put the cards back and reshuffle them."

"Then let me guess what card that is."

"If I guess that card, I win, otherwise, if I guess any card other than that card, I lose."

Although Zhou Nan felt that it didn't matter, he still had to act.

So he immediately objected: "No, what to do with your friend, don't think I haven't seen this kind of magic trick."

"I must be allowed to draw and shuffle the cards. If you don't believe me, I will show these old men and aunts what kind of cards it is."

"And I have to check this deck again."

"Some playing cards have specific patterns on the back, I'm afraid you'll cheat."

"That's the only way it's fair."

The young man's expression remained unchanged, as if he had expected it, he readily agreed: "Haha, of course, you are very thoughtful, handsome guy."

"The situations you just mentioned are indeed used by some magicians when they perform similar magic tricks."

"But I'm not a magician. To prove that I'm guessing purely by luck, I agree to your proposal just now."

"Or if you have any concerns, just mention them."

Then the young man handed the entire deck of cards to Zhou Nan for inspection.

After Zhou Nan picked up the deck of cards, he seemed to casually deal the cards one by one from his left hand to his right hand.

There are only a few such card-guessing routines.

If you don't find a support, then there is a high probability that there is a problem with the card, and it is a prop card.

But in the process of checking one by one, Zhou Nan found that these cards were quite normal.

This made him feel a little strange.

Don't look for tricks, don't use prop cards. Could it be that this person is a legendary psychological card guessing master with a bit of metaphysics?
Because of the "cheat".

Zhou Nan knew that there was such a genre. Those who were just getting started could get more information through the opponent's habitual small movements, as well as subtle expressions and movements, and even penetrate the opponent's hand.

For example, after a person gets a big card, although he will cover up his facial expressions, he will not show his happiness and anger on his face.

But they may subconsciously shake their legs, or slightly adjust the distance between their body and the table, and they can capture this kind of information.

But learning these things not only requires years of accumulation, but also extraordinary talent, so the young man in front of him does not look like this kind of psychological flow card master.

And even if this method is used, it is impossible to guess the cards 100%, so it should not be this kind of routine.

Just when Zhou Nan was thinking about other possibilities.

He suddenly discovered that the pattern on the back of a card was slightly different from other cards from a certain angle, and some cards in this deck were still normal.

It's really hard for ordinary people to notice.

So this person is still thinking about cheating, and wants to show the whole life to himself.

After seeing through the opponent's routine, Zhou Nan naturally didn't panic: "Okay, I have no problem."

"Then I'll start picking cards now."

The young man interrupted: "Handsome guy, I haven't said what prize you want yet."

Zhou Nan was full of confidence: "You were here to give benefits today."

"If you don't guess right, just give all the ten bags of rice and oil you have left to these uncles and aunts, and don't worry about it."

The young man was secretly happy, but he still pretended to think about it for a while, and then said: "Okay, then it will be calculated according to the previous one. You can take 500 yuan with me."

"Maybe I'm very lucky, with a 54/[-] chance of guessing right."

Zhou Nan nodded and took out 500 yuan very readily to participate in the so-called "giving benefits" activity.

Then he held the whole deck of cards in his left hand, drew a card from the middle with his right hand, showed the ace of hearts to the grandparents, and then inserted the card back again.

Then the cards were divided into two, and the two hands put the cards on the table, which seemed to be cross-shuffled slightly by hand.

After washing several times.

Zhou Nan handed the card to the young man.

After the young man took the card, the last trace of worry in his heart was gone, and he secretly laughed at Zhou Nan.

Because even if the small accident happened before, it was because the other party knew some street tricks, or knew some tricks.

But this deck of cards came to him.

So what if the opposite is the Heavenly King Lao Tzu?
If he finds out the cards, he wins.

Nearly half of this deck is a special card with a mark on the back. It is not that there is an obvious problem with the pattern, but that there are slight differences in the depth of the color in some parts of the pattern.

After training, the young man can tell what the marked card is through this subtle difference.

Although Zhou Nan drew a normal card.

The young man couldn't directly see what cards it was from the back, but when Zhou Nan pushed the deck of cards out of his hand with his thumb, and then inserted the cards back.

He saw Zhou Nan put the card on a marker.

Through the exposed part of the pattern, the young man saw that the mark card was the Q of clubs.

When Zhou Nan shuffled the cards.

The young man was also staring at it, the two cards were not shuffled, they were always together.

That is to say, as long as the club Q is found, the game is over.

The young man now pretended to pray to the air for a while, and then spread the whole deck of cards on the table.

He quickly found the Q of clubs.

It was also confirmed that the card next to the Q of Clubs was the card he was looking for.

But the young man naturally wanted to put on a show. He first picked up a card at random, and after hesitating for a long time, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate, and then put it down.

This operation was repeated two or three times.

The young man grabbed the card he had chosen a long time ago: "Forget it, I don't want to ink it anymore. Anyway, I am giving benefits to everyone, so I chose this card!"

however.

The subsequent reaction on the scene was completely beyond his expectations.

Those uncles and aunts actually let out cheerful laughter.

"Hahaha, I guessed wrong!"

"I thought this man was a liar before, but it turned out that he really came to send warmth."

"I also have to thank that young man, if it wasn't for his suggestion, we wouldn't be able to get these rice and oil!"

"."

The young man blushed when he heard the words, he raised the card in his hand and shouted: "Isn't it this card?!"

"Don't lie to me together!"

"Why not this square K!"

The uncles and aunts felt a little puzzled when they heard the words, and even began to doubt the mental state of the person in front of them.

Isn't it more likely to guess wrong?
The young man still didn't believe it. He found the trust in the crowd and said, "Tell me, is that card a king of diamonds?"

Then the aunt also shook her head: "No. It's the Ace of Hearts."

The young man heard the sound of a big brain, and then he quickly noticed something was wrong with his memory!
He didn't seem to have seen this card after he had just spread it out! !

The young man immediately spread out the cards again, only to find that one card was indeed missing!

In other words, I have been being played like a fool just now!
