In the movie the con man sends 100 letters predicting the winner of an up coming baseball game. 50 said one team won, 50 said the other. After the game was over, he sent out letters to the 50 who had gotten the correct prediction. Predicting the next upcoming game. Again Half said one team Half said the other. After this game was over, he had 25 people who had gotten a correct prediction for 2 games. He continued the process until he had 6 people who got 4 predictions correct. He then asked these people for money for further predictions
