Derren Brown lost some guys £5k live on tv!!!!!!

[WhiteBears]

Did anyone watch, Derren Brown how to beat the casino?? he wanted to bet on one number with £5k and win £175k yet this money isnt his, he wantd to win it for someone else. he did it live .. secret filming, and predicted the one number -he lost it all, he was one number out!!!!

[looobylooo]

just watched it on ch4+1.. what loads of cobblers! lol

[WhiteBears]

looobylooo he was really close, but i think he got distracted. but was very close!!

[looobylooo]

dont tell me you believed it all wb?! .. if so, i think the temperature in that house of yours is definitely creeping up lol

[ummmm]

I know someone who worked in casinos for years....he could spin the wheel and get the number....sometimes one either side if he got it wrong....

He could also get everyone in the pub to shuffle the cards and still deal himself a full house
...

very clever.ummm well derren could have tried again =D when he said the guy would get his money back, do you think he tried again? he managed to predict the lotto numbers though, and the possibilities of guessing the right lotto is over millions to one, where was in roulette its 36 numbers plus a zero that makes 1 in 37 chances to win ?
looby yes i believe it, you can get it right, but you just have to get the Technique 100% accurate.

[looobylooo]

hmmmmmm, im not so sure wb lol .......... hes a very clever illusionist afterall....

[masma]

I thought it was a load of twoddle - gone off him big time after these last couple of weeks.

[looobylooo]

my thoughts exactly masma, a load of dramatic twoddley cobblers!! lol.

[Tizzi24]

I agree loobyloo - he's just a very good con artist!

[captainkirk]

i saw it . it was ok and he was only one out .

[looobylooo]

yeahh butt.. lol .... dont you think the 'just being 1 out'' was all part of the illusion/fix/trick?? .. you know, the adding to the edge of your seat drama of it all? ... plus, do you really think the 'other bloke' wouldve been in for such winnings? .. hmmmmmmmm .... me thinks not anyway.....

I couldn;'t find anyone who he had supposed to habve hypnotised to their chair and this week he loses £5000 at roulette. I could do that but I don't make an hour long TV show out of it.

The guy was obviously Derren Brown's mate. No -one could just walk into a bank and come out with 5 grand in readies just like that. The bank would want to know why he wanted it and probably have to order in that much cash.

[another-view]

If he predicted the lottery, how come he didn't show the numbers before the draw? That would have been more impressive. And if it worked by taking everyone's average guess, how did the number two come up? Someone would have had to have been guessing negative numbers

[looobylooo]

and... wasnt it a bit strange that noone, not one other person was in the public area that the chap was walking through when derren brown approached him...?! ... and .... what if the bloke didnt have £5000 in his bank, not everyone has that amount in ready savings to just draw out.... and .... as if 'some random bloke' was going to receive £175000 winnings just like that .... commme onnnnnn!!!
im whittling on a bit now arent i ..... lol ..... think i d better shurrup!
