    should I put it in? should I just book it myself and hope it losses?

    thing is, I think it is a winner.

    I really don't think he is going to pay me. so I dunno wtf to do. telling him no is really not an option, considering the things he has done for me through out my life.

          Don't trust him? Don't do it. Seems simple.

              it ain't that. he's been my best friend all my life. always been the first person to give me his shirt off his back. but hes hit a rough patch last two years in his life..lives down in florida now after rehab..i barely see em anymore..and from what I'm told from family he's fallen off the wagon again...so it's just a bad spot...

              dunno..aired out enough dirty laundry already...guess I'm just gonna book it myself. if he wins ill pay. if he losses, whatever.

                  Once a year someone posts the same thing. they DONT book it, it wins then they have to come up with the money. TELL HIM at 435p YOU COULDNT GET IT IN. Solved.

                            bad spot here..

                            if its a small enough amount that you can cover, just book it yourself,

                            if its too much, tell him money is thicker than blood and go shyt in his hat

                                            tell him your not giving him any money until he cleans his act up.

                                            its for his own damn good..



                                            or ask if his drug dealer takes sbr points?

                                              I hate when ppl ask me to put bets in for them. IMO that's the best teaser option but i'd rather just play Seattle than tease anyone

                                                        its for his own damn good..



                                                        or ask if his drug dealer takes sbr points?

                                                        Tell him he'll get paid when he's clean. If he takes offense to that, then maybe you aren't as close as you think.

                                                          i took the bet myself... so if he doesn't pay its not really hurting my wallet...
