What makes someone "Cunning"? well this is easy.... for an example:
we made a bet on who would win on a game that was hard and we didn't know how to play. the winner of the game gets $500. So the game we decided to play was Poker-lets just say you didn't know how to play poker if you do-. You're thinking that i don't know how to play when i "Actually Do" know how to play, and at first i let you get a few chips and let you think you're going to win with no doubt, then when it comes down to the finish point, i take "Full" control, and start kicking your butt and i win the game.
See that's me being cunning, because I'm being deceitful by letting you think i don't know how to play when i actually do. I'm taking ADVANTAGE of your lack of knowledge on this particular subject, using it against you so i could gain profit.
