Fast money earning method?

I play online poker, you could make money pretty fast if you're good at it.

OK, so this isn't entirely legal, but it's not that bad and it's almost impossible to get caught. Walk into a store like CVS or something, and ask for change for a $20 bill. Ask for a 10, a 5, and 5 ones. Say that you need some small bills or something. Then, as you are putting those bills in your wallet, pretend to see some small bills, and say something like "oh crap, I have a bunch of 1's in there". Hand back the 5, and 4 ones, but pretend it is 5 ones, and ask for a 10. Tell the clerk to count it, and he will say you are a dollar short. Hand him a 1, and then a 10, and just ask for your 20 back. If you do it right, and act it well, you will walk away with 10 extra dollars. It's pretty easy to pull off, and while it is stealing, it's 10 quick dollars, so it's your decision lol. Cheers!

As far as winning championships in anything, the guys who win are the pros who are known by everyone. They can only make money in teh tournaments or by guest appearances or if it's a popular topic like billiards was around 2000 or poker is now, you can write a book. For making money it's not the tournaments, but the side games, either private or on the side tables at a tournament. If you are good enough you can make enough in those games from all the wanna-bes. This is where a bit of a hustle comes in. Never just beat someone outright, always be one ball, one card, better. Don't pull out all the tricks at once. Watch movies like the color of money and the hustler for pool, rounders for cards, practice up. Play a couple of small tournaments to see if you are really good enough. Then when you have the confidence, make the side bets, the side games, make the money a bit at a time and not one lump sum.
