If the table was red hot who of us would employ such measures if they were available? The problem with the story is that they didn’t really say how hot the table was.

His theory was that since he was out to win a few hundred bucks, and since Ben Franklin's picture on the $100 bill looks like Papa Smurf, then his Smurf characters would lure more "Papa Smurfs" into his wallet. It never worked. Eventually, he figured that what he needed was the Smurfs nemesis, Gargamel, in order to "capture" Smurfs. So he brought a Gargamel doll and set it on the table rail. Sure enough, he made about $1500 the first night he tried it. But Gargamel, like most talismans, had no staying power, and my friend continues to live at or below the poverty line.
