Trick Card Monty

"Follow the queen, get the green!"

The call would go out every few minutes, over the noise of the marketplace. Another sucker would wander over and lose their money. I would shake my head, but never try to stop them. People gotta make their own choices.

But then one day, the sucker didn't leave after losing, instead they stayed and won, again and again. They just seemed to know where the right card was, again and again.

Once they managed to clear out the dealer I asked them the secret to working out the trick.

"What trick?" they asked me.
