proven beyond doubt This is a good little book filled with loads of top tips on bar/party scams, you wont be earning a wage off of what is offered but you can get a reputation as man who can raise a laugh. I use many of these in pubs/bars before i go into my card routines, it helps people relax when you can gently ease them into a humourous situation before producing a pack of cards encouraging them to ask see another trick. Proof that the better scams work is evident by the free drinks i have received through... more info
The book itself is the biggest scam It should be entitled '101 Ways to Win a Tenner', as the book itself costs 9.99. You may think it is worth a gamble to pay the 10 quid, as you will potentially learn another 100 ways to get it back, but you would be wrong.

Fantastic! The absoloute bible for the would-be conman. You can make a fortune while being the life-and-soul at the same time. All the tricks/stunts/scams are easy to do and your 'victims' won't even mind parting with their cash as they'll have been entertained in the process. They can then go on to fleece their friends with the same bets - in effect they're paying for an education!
Gem of a book I can honestly say this is one of the best books I have ever read. I found some of the tricks absolutely brilliant, and you don't need to be a magician to do them. I don't actually intend conning anyone out of £10 or even 10p, I think these tricks are more fun as sportsman's bets with friends. One reviewer said the writing style was irritating and immature. I found that rather odd, because I found that not only was the material fascinating, but the writing style was genuinely funny too.more info
