    Would like to see PATRICK McIRISH more involved here
    Tremenous poster with tons of informative, and sometimes opinionated, insight into the offshore industry.


    McIrish, can we get you to post more here, I need help from time to time in my day-to-day ritual of grinding out a few bucks.

    Thanks

    Folks, to give you an idea of this guys posting prowess, he has turned down gigs for posting at more then just one gaming site, sites that would pay him well in excess of $4,000 a month.......to just post!!

    Having this guy off of ANY posting HOF ballot is a worse travesty then DWIGHT EVANS being omitted off of the MLB HOF ballot.

        Laying it on a little thick are we Fisher? That said I appreciate the comments. And yes I am here already and enjoying my stay although getting destroyed, absolutely destroyed!! Maybe there is some < value > in me being here for the contrarian crowd.

        SBR is one hell of a forum, wish I had noticed sooner than I did.

          ......then you have missed tons of free education.


          I'm really sorry to hear this, guess you are rather new to the world of offshore gaming.

                Thanks BD, you're one I actually look to read on a regular basis. Good mixture here of new blood and old school guys who have been around the block, I like that.


                Plus the free pizzas ain't bad either.

                  Joined 09-15-05 and still no avatar?? WTF?

                  Had some fun debates with PM back in the Rx days as poster Buzzsaw. SBR was well looked down on by the long noses of the then titan Rx. All in good fun in the place we know as the twilight zone..errr...forumville.

                      Sure. Don't see how anything but good could come from it. Used to work for/with McIrish back then in the Buzzsaw days.

                              I remember Patty was the biggest moderator of all times at The Rx under the Shrink back in the day when RX was a massive forum. Patty had more power than anyone in the entire offshore world except Shrink and eventually the heads clashed and Patty was fired. Patty was making 50G's a year to run the place and he had full control. I think Fishhead at the time was second in command. It was a crazy time and that is how good this guy was. He does not post as much but still gambles.

                                      McIrish is a tremendous gambler, businessman, and offhore gambling expert.

                                      BTJ---I think many forums would offer him more then the reported 4,000 per month to be an active poster and offshore dispute specialist.

                                        OFFSHORE DISPUTE SPECIALIST WHO OWES OVER 40 GRAND NOW THAT IS FUNNY STOP FISHHEAD YOUR EMBARRASSING YOURSELF

                                        PATRICK MCIRISH ALSO THOUGHT IT WAS O.K. FOR LENNY FROM CASCADE SPORTSBOOK TO ACCEPT A BET 15 MINUTES AFTER A GAME STARTED WHEN THERE OWN WRITTEN RULES SAID (ALL WAGERS WILL BE ACCEPTED UP UNTIL THE POSTED STARTING TIME OF THE EVENT) IS THIS THE SAME MCIRISH YOU WANT ON THE DISPUTE COMMITTEE

                                        YOU CANT HAVE A STIFF WHO WELCHED ON 40 GRAND ON A DISPUTE COMMITTEE HE WOULD SIDE WITH THE SPORTSBOOK EVERY TIME AS LONG AS THEY FILLED HIS POCKETS

                                          That was one of the most bizarre stories I have ever heard. A lot of you guys do not know what happened in the Patrick McIrish Scandal and I will sum it up. Patty had a credit account and he left his computer on and he claimed his 9 year old nephew started betting in his account and lost 40 grand and Patty said he was not paying the debt, it was a major scandal and the credit book threatened patty and he told them to go fuk themselves and come get me. Patty would of blew their heads off with a gun and they knew this and dropped it. We still do not know to this day what actually happpened. Do not leave your computers on and loggeg into sportsbooks unattended.

                                            No sportsbook should ever threaten a client............if they do, they themselves are asking for trouble.

                                              I dont think we will ever know exactly what happened. What is really bizzare is for those guys who served him up to let a regular guy have the ability to lose $60,000 on credit. I am a guy with a lot more means than most and I never had more than a $5,000 settle figure without some advance notice. Patty was set up to some degree.

                                              As far as the settle figure goes, they should have just worked something out. I have seen big bookies let guys walk at .20 on the dollar. If one of us leaves our eTrade account open and the cleaning lady losses all of our dough trading pork bellys we are fvcked. Same thing happened here. Patty was indeed set up but even so he should have settled it and walked free.

                                                SBR doesn't hire paid posters. It's kinda hard to turn down a job when SBR is not hiring.

                                                    It would not surprise me at all to see SBR pull out the contract papers for him to sign on the dotted line.

                                                        That's believable.

                                                          You obviously can't read. I said SBR doesn't hire and doesn't employ paid posters. Which part you didn't understand?

                                                            McIrish is one of the most entertaining posters on the boards. He should have been on the HOF ballot. Has more gambling knowledge than 99% here.

                                                            I'm going to set aside the stiff stuff.
