[@DBR00]

You don’t understand how the shills work. The shills work with the operator of the game. At first the shill will “win” so others see that the operator pays out. Then the shill will purposely lose so the mark says to himself, oh my goodness, I cannot believe she missed it. I know where the ball is at. Then when the mark tries the game, he will never win. Te entire game is rigged to gain your confidence and then take you to the cleaners.

[@Tomkat55]

It’s usually a crew of about 4 working together. Be careful with these scammers!

[@rayjohnson9781]

Uncle P.T. was right , there really is a sucker born every minute. There are still rubes out there that don’t know two things, 1. The pea is in his hand not under the shell, 2. The winners in the crowd are workin with him. One time I heard a shell man say “ I’m not a gambler I’m a robber.”

@@roll. because it's done in bad faith...He has accomplices and none of it is honest.

[@jimbeam-ru1my]

when you know the trick then it's easy to tell where the pea is. When the guy moves the shell with the pea under it, he pushes it forward and that causes the pea to come out the back, where he grips it with his fingers while he grabs another shell, he pushes this shell backwards and that causes the pea to go underneath it. The problem is, when you know the right one then one of his shills in the audience will make a higher bet on another shell and the guy will always take the highest bet.

The middle one!" and the accomplice wins....He mixes it again and makes it obvious and the same accomplice puts another 100 on it and purposely chooses the wrong one where the crowd says "OMG it was so obvious!" (thinking the first accomplice just made a bad call)....He mixes it again and makes it easy again, this time the second accomplices IMMEDIATELY says he knows where it is (so as to not give other people a chance to actually win the money) and shows the second accomplice wins....At this point the scam is ready for the crowd and real people start gabbling but this time, he makes it difficult and uses sleight of hand and that's when people start losing.

[@velizarmitrev7510]

But what if you do the following. Since he obviously hides the ball in his hand so he can manipulate from which cup the ball is going to come out. When he asks where is the ball can't you go turn over two of the cups and say "the ball is neither in this cup nor in this cup which leaves the only possible position of the ball to be in the only cup that is not turned over" this way he has to pretend like the ball is really there because if he doesn't do it everyone which isn't on the scam will see that its a scam. Never tried it but its a possible solution to fuck up someone that scams like this.
