    About TEDx, x = independently organized event
    In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    Its unbelievable how much his voice and expression of words are so much like Eric Mead, it's like an impersonation of him.

      @@kotogray8335 yes he does have a similar tone and cadence to Nicholas Cage, I just meant from a magician perspective he sounds like Eric Mead, it's uncanny actually.

      I think the room wasn't mic'ed. Even at the end the applause was very faint, so laughers, let alone gasps, are hard to hear.

    The real scam is that you think he has hair on his head...and then as soon as he leans.....he doesn't.

      a professional Card shark will never loose overall, He will let you win a couple games... but as soon as the pot is big enough for him, he will take it all

      @casablancavic 7 лет назад

      and what happens when you decide not to get greedy and then take everything you have and walk away leaving him with less then he had before?

    • @ThaGlizzard
      @ThaGlizzard 7 лет назад

      zaz lol then he's down for that hand, people are inherently greedy and he's eventually gonna get someone who's gonna dump money into him.

      The Shark is using the Law of Averages; certainly you can walk away and beat him - but you're one of a hundred. Assuming it was a bet he hadn't planned on paying out, the only time he would actually give you money is if he was trying to pull in someone else whom he figures has more money.
      So basically, if you bet and he fucks up - he's just going to run away; gambling is illegal without a license anyway, so it isn't like he HAS to pay out. If he DOES pay you and you peace out, it's only because you're not the actual victim. The scammers can easily just set a limit and have his cohort hit the limit if things get too large.

    Instead of trading things for money, let's trade things for food....
    Someone tries to scam you for food and have more than s/he needs - at the end dies of obesity.
