The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at the Trope Launch Pad.

One character is the sucker in a poker game and is tricked into losing. Another character gets the money back by going to the same game and posing as a sucker but turning out to be an expert at poker.
This is a recycled script I have seen in Sgt Bilko (the series), Happy Days and Black Books.
