Mauricio's mic was off.... it seems... or the levels were too low, I dunno.

Anyways, good episode as usual!!

Nice. Love how you gave him that false sense of security before nailing the coffin shut.

oh well you should see the movie if you like shooting pool or hustling people. im not saying you riped it off some one. cuz like you said in some of the other scams other people have done it be for you but you are bringing it to the masses. which is good i guess unless the people your trying to scam have seen it. also you never said that this is a scam or what ever that i came up with you just showed us the scam.

I thought this might be some sort of throat/chugging trick for faster drinking. Even still it was a good episode. Every episode has kept my attention from start to finish, and I can't wait for more.

I remember seeing this demonstrated on one of those after-school kids shows a couple of years back, but with soda.

But hey, it just means that this is a classic trick to play on unsuspecting victims. >:-)

[neverendingwhitelights]

I've done this one before, and usually I have an empty glass that I've been drinking from, and trap one of his with that. It's still technically my glass. So...

Or take one that's almost done, and then add the fresh ones to make it even harder for me. I quickly finish the one that's nearly done, and trap that way.

Though the way in the video is fun as well, having them sit there while you take your time with a whole drink.

Feb 4th, about 25 minutes in (including commercials) the lieutenant uses the ploy to get the bad guy to talk. He called it the "international cover up" game. He bets the guy he can drink 3 glasses of beer before he can finish 3 shots.

At first I think he's one of these guys who did a lot of beer bongs and can open his throat like a porn star. Then he adds this line:

"Only rule, you can't touch the other guy's glasses." Ding Ding Ding. Scam school grad!

"Oh gee, I got so much to drink, why don't you give me a little handicap?"

He starts sipping and explaining how in WWII they used to "outwit" the enemy. Code for scam. Then after finishing half of one glass he says "go", finishes his one beer and covers the last shot glass just in time.
