Ok, this story is old but it happened in my hometown and made me laugh.

This guy steals a backhoe, and drives it right through the front of the mall in the middle of the night. He scoops up an ATM machine and drives off down the road.

The cops found it smashed open and empty a mile or so down the road.

Also, I heard this story once and don't know if it is true or not...

This Canadian guy is being a tourist in New York, and these 2 guys come up to him with knives and tell him to give them all their money. So the Canadian guy is like, ok whatever, and starts handing him all his money which happened to be fancy Canadian money. The muggers see how its not green, and is all sorts of different fancy colors, and think it is fake. So they stab him and take off, leaving all the money.

At a community college I used to work for tutoring, some guys rented a truck, backed it up to the cafeteria area, loaded the ATM up (it wasn't bolted down or anything), and drove off. Never caught the guys who did it, even though they did it in the middle of the main lunch crowd. From what I heard from administration people, it was around +$10k.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Maybe you can see the hole in your logic.

but if you can run fast, you decrease your chance of getting caught

so if you increase your chance of flopping a full house to 60%, 72o IS +ev
