the recent Ron Polk saturday doublehead debate reminds me of a 3 card monte
Guy takes out 3 cards, ace of hearts, queen of hearts and the 10 of spades. He turns them over, with the face down and mixes them up and spreads them on a table. He then tells Ron Polk that he will offer the following wager.
Name a suit and turn over ONE card. If the card you turn over is the same suit as you named, I will give you $50 if it's not you give me $50.
Ron says "ok, I will take spades"
An onlooker says, "Hey Ron, you dont want to take spades, you want to take hearts"
Ron says " Nope, I like spades, I am comfortable with spades"
On looker says "Thats stupid"
Second on looker says "How do you know, have you ever been in this exact position before?"
Anyway, Ron picks one of the three cards, and guess what? Its the 10 of spades.
Second onlooker says "See...told you so."
3rd on looker says..."well at least he didnt say diamonds"
