Doesn’t one have to volunteer to be a Mark?
Yes but apparently a lot of people are really stupid or utterly lacking in self control so they need the government to smack their patties.
I blew $5 on 3 card monte in Detroit a few years ago. I knew I wasn't going to win so I considered it paying the guy to perform his act. He was no less honest than a casino aside from the fact that he wasn't paying taxes or protection money to a city council member.

The scam in three-card monte is to get you to show more money; if you win then a block away you are robbed (of the dealer’s money and your own).
