Bookie is giving me the run around...

[ATLIEN6]

Long story short, I owed the fukker a dime last week and paid him even though it hurt my wallet and put my out of a pocket a bit, no worries though i knew i could get it back this week and i did. Now its Monday...Payday...and my payment never comes through. Keep in mind this dude lives in Alabama(anybody here from Bama?) and I'm in Atlanta so this is all through paypal, venmo, google wallet etc. So yes i am paying a stranger and expecting him to pay me back. In the past he has paid me on time, never won a dime off of him though. I was texting him with him earlier and he told me i should have it no later then 6 and he was in the process of getting the money to someone who would send it over or some bs. 6pm rolls around and radio silence... any of y'all ever had this happen? How should i handle it? Do you think he'll pay? Dude is lucky he does not live in Atlanta cause best believe i would show up on that doorstep. No i am not acting petty over 1000$ but when you act shady and give me the run round it makes me think you are trying to stiff me and then i have to act like this... just venting.


Probably just bugging out over nothing. but i am big on my word and being transparent with people. If i can't pay you i will atleast tell you vice versa.

It sounds like you're both playing outside of your means.

And you're betting with a stranger?

So, either you were going to stiff him, or vice versa. I guess he won.

[unde0087]

Monday isn't over yet, I would start to worry about it when tomorrow you don't hear from him. Stuff in life happens

[Mr KLC]

Waiting for the customary, "If you fill in a sportsbook complaint form SBR may be able to help." statement, but it probably won't apply here. They could care less about redneck, incestuous bookies

Yes, shit happens. Got caught in a cycle betting out of my means.

Yes/no to second statement, a stranger to me, but the bookie is a college friend of a friend. Not very close to this kid though.

Regardless if i get paid i will be moving all my shit offshores

[mpaschal34]

You need a more reliable bookie....I know a guy here in Texas that pays every time. Send me....uh...I mean him $2000 via PayPal and you should be good.

Sorry to hear this happening bro honestly you have no action to take unless you want to take it into your own hands......move your money offshore you might have to wait ten to 12 days or so to be paid but point is you will always be paid bro and that's all that should matter good luck sorry to hear especially around holidays

Thanks buck, shit sucks..kinda need that dough. I'm sure everyone reading my post thinks I'm retarded or some shit but literally i know 10 different guys that book action with this dude, the only thing is they are all losers and piss away money rarely ever winning. I googled this dudes name and it pops up on bunch of poker sites....makes me believe he's just a degenerate poker player potentially scamming everybody to continue his addiction...which i get...but not with my money.

[ATLIEN6]

On top of this he paid me 600 2 weeks ago, not sure why he'd run off just on a dime. If he was smart he'd stick around i might just give it all right back.

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

Try being cool say hey if ya need a day i understand but hit me up either way if he doesnt bite start harrassing your friend kinda friend let em know people getting stiffed

[JAKEPEAVY21]

I hope you get paid but hopefully this opens your eyes to the fact that you have little to no recourse if he stiffs you.

I suggest you find another way to gamble whether he pays or not.

forget locals

most broke

[lakerboy]

Only play with Chinese. Always pay but if you lose you pay or die.

[Slipknot26]

Where's he located in Bama ?
Know plenty of them

[pilebuck13]

Best thing you can do is wait and when it becomes clear your not getting paid go hard and expose this guy everywhere you can every form every message board twitter Facebook whatever you can. Don't contact him for a day call him from a different number if you want pm me I'll call him

AtlantaAlien have you tried to file SBR complaint form?

Great minds think alike, will give him another day or 2 before i fully blow his shit up all over the web and post his number on the internet for everyone to blow up. Maybe we can even get you or JJ to make a video fukking with this asshole.

Check your PMs

[badgerguy]

I had this happen to me as well. Dude is/was a member of this very forum. I live in WI, he lives in Cali. Very small stakes. I always paid him on time, he always paid me...Except one Monday he bailed on me over about $450. Dudes a POS as far as im concerned.

[unusialsusp5]

if you know 10 different guys who bet with him i wouldn't worry. he probably had a bad week and got stiffed by someone who lost which is where your money is tied up. if he is still taking bets he will pay. this will clear out for him. it always does.

[Harry N. Lloyd]

Most bookies don't end the week until after Monday Night game. Maybe he's waiting to see how all his other clients fared. I know one thing, in my pool of 45 guys about 35 went over 50% this week. The books may have taken a whooping and maybe, just maybe, your guy is in over is head. Not good.

[grease lightnin]

Yep, seems like every obvious side hit this week. Books got hit

GL AT-elien.

[newguy]

Books got crushed this week for sure. That's why most bookies collect Tuesday and pay Thursday. Time to clear up collection issues and pay out on time. Give it some time. Don't blow him up right away. Don't blow an out if he has legit excuse and has otherwise been good.

Show up at his door with a wrench, a footlong dildo, and some lube. Usually does the trick.

what if they both enjoy it and then you forget about the money???

[jjgold]

Only other thing to do is wear a wire if hasn't paid you turn them in

[chico2663]

There was a reason pete rose had to go out of town to find a bookie. He had stiffed everyone in cinti. 2 Questions! Are you young and couldn't find a local? Or have you stiffed a shitload in your hometown? Just wondering.
