Failure description
  • This may be a well known confidence trick, but people still think they can beat it. When you accidentally switch cards in the wrong direction, you prove them right.
From Card/Storylet title
  • Steal from the gullible
Success description
  • A classic short con trick, this, but people fall for it in droves. The aim is simple: shuffle three cards,[…] until a mark steps up with a bet; then you switch and flip and take the money. Easy. Unpleasant, when they're betting with rats, but easy.
