#THESHELLGAME: I love watching this classic street short-con, seen guys take ten minutes to make £300 from unsuspecting marks. Cups-and-balls-with-shills-and-cheating, I admire what you can do with a rug, a box and three matchboxes, all completely innocent, officer. TOP TIP: if you ever see a guy holding the cash, it’s because it helps to hide the sleight-of-hand - a magician mate explained this to me. #london #shortcon #streetgambling #bricklane
