A stand-up guy, NEVER goes to the law for anything. The street takes care of the street. There are ways to deal with this situation.

How do you pay when you lose?

daggerkobe · 01-02-09, 12:46 PM

This is why I laugh when someone claims they won $10k off their bookie and are going to go buy a new car.

They think they will get $10k cash stuffed in an envelope when they drop by.

Cash via FedEx...

Nicky Santoro · 01-02-09, 01:00 PM

I think i found him...

jjgold · 01-02-09, 01:05 PM

Wear a wire and you can nab him

It is easy

Jesse Black · 01-02-09, 02:06 PM

Have you actually ever met this guy ? Why is Fed Ex involved, if he is local. This story is starting to sound a little strange. Do you know where he lives?
If you have been mailing money to a stranger, then you need to smarten up real quick.

compaqDikk · 01-02-09, 02:37 PM

call your city service 311 and ask for a nonemergency decetevice. if they hang up on you call 911 the rest of the day. a great way for a cop to show up at the door and explain your situation. fukk the poeope that have a fork in their head, they can wait

finally, threatening to jump will keep them on the line for a good 45 minutes until they id you and show up and make you take a step back

My locals would pay if someone won 75K one week.

wrong side of the state for that i think compaQ

G's pks · 01-02-09, 06:01 PM

One guy talks about getting ripped off on a drug deal, another about gambling. My question is to those that tell the police... What do you say to them? Excuse me officer my drug deal went bad, can you get my money back?

JerseyShop101 · 01-02-09, 06:23 PM

Sue them, small claims court?

Your right I didn't go buy a new car. But I'm looking at used ones. I'm actually thinking of waiting until winter is over just incase I get in an accident or something I can just buy my new used car after my wedding in May.

And I did get paid. And I was smart, gave it to the women to put in the bank account for me so I didn't spend it or re-bet it.

USC 3k
Iowa 3k
1k parlay
6 point teaser 1k
some other varous games/teasers sent about 6-5 on.
Bama tonight for 1k

Dagger can be a hater, not my fault he's a loser

again spot betting is your friend. Gambling is gambling money management is for suckers reading spreadsheets.

CaneDawg · 01-02-09, 07:53 PM

my local got hit by a truck

freak accident

You've done this? I'll agree with the thread about letting things take care of themself.

purecarnagge · 01-02-09, 09:12 PM

get a gun? learn how to kill someone and not get caught? I mean really how hard is it to take a guy to the woods shoot his ass then wash your hands and drop the gun in a river nowhere close to the body.

buying gas cans or paying in cash will help avoid detection...not using credit cards helps too. Turning off the cell phone helps as well.

I could go on longer but then I would be an accomplice...

I assume you are talking hypothetically since gambling is illegal. I did read a fictional story once about a fictional character who was stiffed by a bookie. Here is what he did. First he got a duster, like this one (minus the goofy hat):

Then he got a short barreled, double barreled, 12 guage shotgun like this one:

Then he had a tailor sew straps inside the duster so that the shotgun could be carried under the duster without notice.

Then he removed the right side inside pocket so that he could put his hand in his "pocket" and have his finger on the trigger.

Then he visited the bookie and asked to be paid. When the bookie said "No", he pulled the shotgun level with one motion, cocked both triggers and said "I don't think I explained that correctly, I think you need to reconsider". To which the bookie said "yes". Only the amount owed had gone up significantly because of the daily 10% vig on the overdue debt. To which the bookie also rather enthusiastically agreed.

According to the fictional story anyway.
