Many of you were not fortunate enough to witness what historians unanimously consider the Golden Era of Online Posting. Of course, Coach Hanky Webber led the charge for all degenerates with his jjdold handle over at majorwager.com, back before he moved exclusively to SBR. Majorwager has never recovered for obvious reasons. There is no secret why SBR is now the premier site.
To put this video in context, Hanky used a local by the name of Sportman ("Sporto"). The understanding they had was that when Hanky made a bet it was for one dime unless specified otherwise. Sportman used a thug, named Theodore ("Theo"), to assist with collections as needed on and after settlement day (Tuesdays back then). Nicky Santoro can attest to this. This video was made on a Friday morning and Hanky owed Sporto around 5 dimes, now 3 days past due!
Hanky really duped Sporto time and again by using his charismatic personality and vernacular to throw Sportman off.
It was sheer phucken genius, boys! Hanky would deliberately lose a string of one dime bets and then place a monster wager, like for 25 dimes, and clean Sporto out. This cycle would occur each quarter and Sportman always fell for it! 
In this vid, we see Hanky setting Sportman up nicely. He had lost 5 straight one dime bets (Hawks +2, Lakers -9, Knicks -1, Bulls +4 and Pistons ML) and cleverly took the Nets +1 to set the trap, knowing full well they would lose by double digits (and they surely did), as he was about to clean Sporto out, once again, on a big gridiron play. It was a thing of phucken beauty!
Hanky regularly gave shout outs to two prominent posters, Boston Gambler and Mr. Falcone (a Costa Rican bookie). He would also brag about his refined palate and expensive meals out so as to drive Sporto nuts! Sporto was infuriated that Hanky was eating out at nice restaurants while owing him money. You hadda be there to really appreciate it, and I know some of you out there were, but for those who met Hanky only after joining SBR, I present this video to you to hopefully illustrate the sheer brilliance that is The Legend.
There will never be another Hanky Webber of the Golden Era. Just like Seinfeld was a one of a kind show and gone forever, so are the vids of the major wager dahhht kahhhm days. Let us cherish the sweet memories. Hanky, you will always be the very best!
