    How long you been waiting?? If you won it last week - normal payout is Thursday no? He may be trying to collect. How long you been with him? How have payouts been in the past? Any reason to think 2300 would break him? I hope not or he didn't have that kind of financial support

    Been waiting 3 months!!!

    Been betting with him for a year or so. I lost $4500 and paid him.......month or so later I won $1700 and he paid........now I've hit him for $2300 and he acts like he's dead. He's a principal at a high school.


    Thought about going to the newspaper and ruin his damn name. Hopefully it would get him fired

    guy has too much to lose by not paying you, You should be able to get your money. Guy probably rakes in 6 digits a year as principal 2,300 is nothing compared to the risk of losing his job. Get your money and find a new guy.

    His career would be over. Text him and tell him you have kept logs of every bet.

    He will pay.

    Or his reputation.

    Can't believe someone would be stupid enough to be a principal by day and bookie by night. That dude is just asking for it.

    Or threaten to go public. He is in way too high profile a position professionally to be pulling this shit.

    Text him...leave a note on his door. Whatever you have to do to contact him. Basically let him know that you have kept logs of your transactions and have recorded conversations, just in case something like this happened. Tell him to expect the local news at his door within 24 hours unless he makes things right. If he has any sense at all he'll pay up and move on. I'd also tell him to round the $2300 up to $3000 for interest and hassle. Why on earth have you waited 3 months to make a move?

    If that doesn't work, you're gonna have to move onto Operation Dead Livestock. One step at a time though.

    Well I really don't want to mess with someone's life. I just ain't gonna sit around and get played by some fat piece of shit.


    Can I get hit with any kind of extortion for threatening him over this?

    I waited this long because he always promised to pay and I try and see the good in people. I didn't think he would pull this shit or I would never have bet with him in the first place.

    He will absolutely pay. Be up front with the guy - put him on a payment plan - $500 a week or month or whatever you think he can reasonably afford. Obviously stop betting with the guy but others have said it right - you can let him know you will be making an anonymous tip to the board of education explaining the situation if he doesn't start figuring things out. He screwed up - got in over his head - it happens - so figure out what he can pay - even if its $50 a week or month - at least that will be enough to keep you from going to BoE

    You sure you got the right number? Leave him voicemail on his work phone. Don't say anything at all incriminating - at all. Just say "Hey - this is riverboatgambler - been trying to get in touch with you on your cell phone but keep missing you - give me a call ASAP. Thanks"

    It just lets him know you are willing to go the extra mile. That said - the nicer you are to him - the more likely he is going to pay - "you catch more bears with honey" or whatever that saying is. Text him and let him know you are ok doing a payment plan - just want to work something out that makes sense for both of you. My guess (hope for you) is this guy wants to do the right thing.

    hey chief

    best thing you can do is show up at his car right when he is leaving work for the day

    you do not want to go in and act like a tough guy

    just let him know you are here. record on phone if necessary

    right now hes calling your bluff. you need to reraise, but not go all in

    He's definitely calling my bluff. Not sure why though. He has no leverage and I have no problem going to school board.


    He is in another state than what I'm in. I'll be visiting his state Sunday though. Have all the texts printed off from my phone company to take to his superintendent.

    going to superintendent isnt a big deal.

    you need to meet him after work and tell him you are going to call his bluff

    local media is next step not superintendent

    I want my money more than I want him to lose his job. I go to superintendent and he will put heat on principal to pay up. The superintendent doesn't want that kind of negative publicity

    Go to the school and wait for him after work. Everything from here on has to be done in person. As some1 who is like your Principal friend, I would rather pay you double than lose the day job.

    He will crumble in person, he is calling your bluff. Bring all that to him and have multiple copies of it to disperse to wherever you feel need.
