Lost 15k on Oregon last night

[MrHalftime]

I was up over 20k last night with my book, and absolutely killing it with college basketball. Every single play was hitting until Oregon. I had Oregon 1H, Game and then added a 2H all for 5k each each so realistically lost 16500. After I lost, still being up 5600, my book pulled some weird things after the fact I had already paid him over 20k before. This leads me to believe that if I won Oregon I would never have heard or seen him again even though I have paid him such a large amount.

This has me asking the question, are there any actual bookies out there that can handle big play and can pay out 50k at a given time. If so, are the easy to deal with. I am located in Chicago and you would think it would be easy, but I have yet to find a nice and enjoyable one.

[Ghenghis Kahn]

what's your bankroll pal? and be careful with locals. i've heard horror stories both ways.

[Deuce]

I bet 100k a prop with Johnny down by the Ambassador Bridge.

[MrHalftime]

Khan, I really don't "have a bankroll" If I am betting I have the money, and it is a sizeable amount, but I hold off on 10k, 15k bets because I dont believe there is a book that can handle it, and my job does not allow me to travel to vegas often

[MrHalftime]

For those of you who don't believe me, I ended the night horribly, here is a picture

[jjgold]

Most locals and agents risky with bigger bet amounts
Other than Pinnacle, Bookmaker and a few others offshore and of course Vegas

[MrHalftime]

I understand that entirely, but when you dont enjoy the complications of offshore and want to bet cold hard cash, bookies are the best option, if trusted. Normally there are not tho

upload this image to www.tinypic.com and then post a link here....can't see shit on the image you've posted above

[Heandog]

what a crock of shit,and thats why you dont, deal big plays with locals because when u owe them they would have a gun to your head when it is time to pay and when it is time to collect you can do nothing unless you know somebody that is higher up than him

[MrHalftime]

I know, I agree, and most books are bullshit and can't afford to pay, and yes this asshole would have threatened me if I was late on a grand, still have received my 5k Im owed today after blowing 25k on 5 straight plays

here is your proof

very tough break man...spend your 5K wisely

[MrHalftime]

It's really not a tough break because I fluctuate a ton throughout the day so ending up is a plus, I am glad I wasnt up more because he would have run.

[Heandog]

well good luck dude get yourself a runner out of vegas be alot safer and aleast you know you get paid

[WhatALoser]

Heandog, that's basically what I'm saying to him. Why not just pay somebody to run or put in bets for you whether in Vegas or online, if you don't want to deal with all the b.s.?

[ThaTopMoron]

all oregon has been doing is losing and they play no defense

lesson learned

[PaperTrail07]

Betting those amounts.....get a vegas runner sir!

[Heandog]

enough said, diff alot safer been there done that. now I do this and no worries

[MrHalftime]

My father once has an experience with a vegas runner that turned out quite bad. Made 20k on a single day, and never heard from the guy and had no way to trace or contact him. I am just looking for someone around the chicago area that can handle what I bet, and it just seems impossible to find

[Heandog]

Good luck my friend and I wish you the best on your bets I dont like to see anybody lose ,so again good luck

[Cicima6709]

I got stiffed by a bookie on that site...not fun.

[PaperTrail07]

trust me I know how you feel and that's why I just don't trust anyone LOL........A good friend of mine stopped picking up my calls when he was down $750....EVENTUALLY PAID......however...when he is up $$ -not a problem getting ahold of me and his phone seems to work great....not to mention every line I laid out was "off" by 1/2 point ect....people are HILARIOUS and do HILARIOUS things when down $$......very few people left in the world that stand by their word and have enough respect to act like a man when betting....

[19th Hole]

There are Chicago books that pay off large amounts but you have to be introduced.

If you can't trust your lcal payouts then how can you not afford to put up
with the "complications" of an offshore or a runner in Las vegas??

Hmmm....Getting stiffed vs. "complications"???

[PaperTrail07]

Its there----but you wont find it here-----END THREAD

[PaperTrail07]

You deserve to lose 20K if you put it in the hands of a man that is untrackable LMAO LOLOLOLOLOL are you the Fed's sir!@ ??

[MrHalftime]

This was a long time ago, that is why i try not to use vegas runners. I am not looking for it here, buddy you need to relax, I was just saying.

[You mad bro]

my local gives me 20k payouts without a problem if i end up hitting

also was there when he had to give out a sum of 45k to one guy

all depends on the local

[jjgold]

Halftime you have two options

reduce bet sizes and play at Bookmaker or move to vegas

[Louisvillekid1]

no 5 dimes reduced juice

[MrHalftime]

JJ, If I moved to vegas I could not bet the money I am betting because my job would not exist! I need my job to bet the amounts I do

good story pal...

[drfunkmaster]

touch loss on oregon, they got me big... They suck

[Footballtime]

Vi ii?

[PaperTrail07]

[ROFLcopter]

Don't know any locals that can take such big bets. My local gives me a max bet TO RISK of 2K... not even TO WIN 2k... dumbest shit ever.

[PaperTrail07]

2K means he will probably stick around and has a lot of clients....seems healthy
