Good money bro. I did price per head for a cpl years, until i partnered with a local. We were always comparing my method with his method.
It also depends on what your players avg bet and how many bets they make. I was at $13/per player per week.
My local guy had a third party (offshore) that would cover losses but take a percentage of the winnings. (i believe it was 20% but i coulda been higher)
Since 99.9% of the time the books win they were always collecting for the most part. There are trade offs, but i liked the price per head. Made a lot of coin bookin. Its the right side to be on if you got the clientele. Also a side note when you control everything like in the price per head, if u get stiffed your only out $13 unless you had to lay off. I learned a lot doing it. It was awesome and once bball starts its over. Money comes in so fast its ridiculous.

Price per head, or pay per head, or just per head isn't a scam at all. These are businesses setup to provide local bookies with the software they need to run their book. The per head shop doesn't handle any of the money with your players, that's your end of the business. You can definitely make a ton of money if you handle your business right, most everyone running it this way makes decent coin.

Thanks pal. Archie, I hope you're doing as we'll with your few dozen as I am with mine. It's like candy from a kid. Guys here bet almost exclusively on the thunder to cover, ml and overs. I jack all the numbers sky high, sides totals juice, everything. They don't even know
just the other night I think okc was -9, I hung -14 -120 and had over 70%on okc and I lost
archie did you call the other day? Had a 706 or 708 area code. You're the only person I know in the cook county area.

Ok... I was worried that my real life had suddenly crashed head on with my real life. Catastrophe averted.
when I call my own cellphone it goes directly to ChiArchies email. Haven't figured that one out yet.

I'm pretty sure if Kraken and I talked on the phone it would be as bad as Marty Mcfly from the past seeing Marty Mcfly from the future in back to the future 2.
