SCAM
DATE: 2004.
GENRE: Investigative Journalism.
THOSE INVOLVED: Dan, Greg, Steve.
INTEREST TO THOSE INVOLVED: 6/10.
INTEREST TO THOSE NOT INVOLVED: 1/10.
COMMENTS: One night, Greg invited a few of us over to his place for a game of poker. I decided to bring my camera, just to dick around with it. I was tentatively planning to make a movie called "What Happens To Someone When You Put The Camera On His Face All Night," but got bored with that when the answer just turned out to be "he gets annoyed." What I captured was far more shocking. Hear a young Chris, all hopped up on soda pop, uncover the scam of a lifetime that cost him $5 (NOTE: I would have lost this $5 anyway because I was and remain terrible at poker).
The real highlights here are the seamless live action-animation transitions (I'll wager you can't even tell where one ends and the other begins!) and the powerful soundtrack.

Correction: Interest to those not involved, 9/10. That was some true swindling action.
Question posed by videos: What's with all the washers? Even plumbers don't have own that many metal washers. What's Chris trying to hide?
I'm glad you enjoyed me being swindled.
The washers were because we had no poker chips and that was the only thing friend Greg had in any kind of quantity. The fact that they could be moved around the table via concealed magnet I'm sure was nothing more than a strange coincidence.
