The poker industry's propaganda machine would have you think stealing
candy from a baby is very easy. After 30 years experience as a thief
and con artist I still am unable to pull it off consistently. Ask
yourself why this might be? My lack of physical dexterity and mental
acumen? Hardly, I am easily a world caliber thief, ask David Sklansky
when he's drunk, although he probably still won't admit it. Poker has a
lot to gain by making people think this is easy, thief after thief will
try, but end up a failure, hat in hand. World class thieves like
myself, on the other hand, are privy to the real tactics:

1) Baby selection is not as important as the powers that be would have
you believe. Certainly avoiding the tough looking ones helps, but
without the proper tactics, the easiest targets in the world will still
keep you from getting their candy.

2) Avoiding the parents is what makes a TRUE WCT. This of course isn't
easy. Believe it or not, most parents are not likely to leave their
baby for very long. I have been known to hire a "stampers", who will
attempt to lure them away for the necessary time. The problem here is I
usually have to pay them on credit (I don't have the candy yet), and if
things don't work out, you find yourself on the receiving end of some
harsh verbal insults. An ego as delicate as my own may take weeks to
recover.

So it's better you establish teams you can trust as opposed to a single
stamper. Are you naive enough to think this can't be done? With 2 of
my stooges dressed as custodians, one can accidentally drop a bucket of
water on the parent, while the other scrambles to clean it up, the
original will make a crude sexual gesture to the mother. The father
intercedes and at this point I make my move. It's too late, the baby
has no chance. The candy is mine. Management is paid off with jugi
fruits and the scheme grows. You don't think this happen? Name one man
arrested for stealing candy from a baby in a casino in the past 10
years? NAME ONE!!

I agree, Strik9. Russ never considers those candy necklaces. Since you
don't want to play with razor blades around kids, you'd have to pick up the
kids head, to remove those sumptious morsels. I'm sure Russ has an angle I
haven't considered.
