Athough Takedown is a good Idea... How does the "undercover" camera's get all that great footage?? Seems like its all planned to me.

Some of the stuff is shot as it happens, and those who aren't in on the scam are told that the cameras are there for another reason, such as a documentary or that they're part of a news crew or something. Then, for the times when the camera misses anything, the crew will go back and shoot it again. Then you have to go back and shoot all of the "hidden" stuff (under-the-table switches, etc) because obviously the camera can't catch everything the first time around. It's pretty standard stuff in TV production. If you didn't do this, you really wouldn't have much of a show. |

Paul Wilson discusses the TV cameras, filming, etc in the latest issue of Genii. It's a good article/interview.

I can't tell you how many times I've spied hole cards from across the table. Unfortunately, these people always seem to fold before I can act on the information.
One time, when I was young, I botched a sleight so bad, Vernon, Marlo & Miller rolled over in their graves. But I didn't see Elmsley, probably because he was behind the others.
