In the street hustle of three-card monte, shills will place bets and give and receive money from the dealer, but it is all a sham. The shills are not "real people" (actual gamblers) but ringers.

On October 2, 2007, [[United States Senate|Senator]] [[Harry Reid]], [[Democrat|D]]-[[Nevada|NV]], wrote a letter to Mark P. Mays, President and CEO of Clear Channel Communications, who are Rush Limbaugh's chief patrons. In it Senator Reid essentially demanded that Mr. Mays order Mr. Limbaugh apologize for his remarks.[http://reid.senate.gov/newsroom/record.cfm?id=284699]
Mr. Limbaugh obtained a copy of that letter and publicly exhibited it to an audience in [[Philadelphia]], [[Pennsylvania]], on October 11. He then placed the letter for sale at public auction at eBay.com ([http://cgi.ebay.com/Original-Harry-Reid-Rush-Limbaugh-Smear-Letter_W0QQitemZ260170172469QQihZ016QQcategoryZ4105QQcmdZViewItem]). The letter fetched a final price of more than two million US [[dollar]]s.
Images of the text of the letter, and the signatures of the Senators, appear below:
