Thumbs up The Real Hustle Las Vegas - poker players scammed

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ewo73NtwNKg

This is a great con artist/scam show on the BBC. The whole Las Vegas series is fantastic.

Check out this episode where 5 guys get scammed out of $2500 playing in a private game. The scam starts 2 minutes in.

Yeah defiantly a awesome show. Some of the scams are so brazen. Also Jessica Jane Clemant is hot, I would let that scam me any day.

The Vegas series is kinda old now. The current series is series 8 called Undercover. You can watch some episodes here if you are from UK: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/search/?q=Real%20Hustle

Not familiar with the show, but this particular scam was not anywhere near interesting IMO

Re: The Real Hustle Las Vegas - poker players scammed

Like 90% of the cons they do on that show are ether horribly obvious or would not work. For example they did a scam the other day involving fake VIP tickets to clubs driving around in a limo. They made like £70 in one trip. That is terrible money and there is no way they could carry on doing that all night because the police would catch them in about an hour.

However, the show is amazing and I could watch it all day simply because Jess is in it.
