    What to do with my local?
    he wants to setup a payment plan with me? I convinced him to take my 5g's on Kansas earlier this evening. He was telling me how most the money/bets came in on memphis and nobody was giving kansas a shot. I thought I was doing him a favor by taking kansas at 5gs +100... Well supposively 2 other guys I know who usually bet 5g's or more easy came in and hit kansas as well. He wants to pay them first....

    What to do? I know the local is legit and can pay me... I think its more or less he needs time to collect the money from the guys who are now in the hole like JJ and are taking out loans to pay the book etc etc...

    Anyone ever run into this before?


    PS the women just found out I put 5g's on the game and is pissed...

    What to do with that as well, she thought I quit...I told her I reuped for the tournament 2 weeks ago...WTF!!!! Her response is I didn't know you were betting 5 ****ing thousand on it...

    Little help?

    JJ?

    Robyn?

    Swede?

    Sportsgirl?

    Iwin?

    First get a real bookie and that will solve future problems. Because someone here is wacky.

      ive run into this problem.

      run into this problem both times when he bookie was not returning my calls cuz he was juggling money and waiting to collect to be able to pay me. and also had him come straight forward with me and said the same thing he said to u, to me. as long as he is straight forward and u think he would do the same thing with u if u needed to have a payment plan and u came to him and asked for the same thing, and he said yes, i would be fine with this. also make sure u can trust him 100%

      nice hit tonight, i had them for a nickel

        About the woman thing.....obviously she's going to be pissed because you bet 5K on a game, but the bright side is you won. My woman would be absolutely livid with me if I bet that much, but if I won she would be dancing around with joy. Giver her some of the cash and tell her to go buy something nice for herself.

        Now the tricky part will be if she's made about you lying about not betting anymore. In that case, you're pretty much screwed for a little bit. Good news is that she'll get over it. Woman don't like being lied to so hang in there because you're going to have to put up with some crap from her. GL and congrats on the big win.

            Obviously you are dealing with a small time guy. After he pays you, go find a real bookie. If he's having a trouble paying out a few 5 dime bets, I wouldnt be betting with the gy.

                Dude take my advice and get what he can give ya and don't go threatening him or you won't get anything. In this day and age if you go threatening someone and they get you on tape you are in a lot of trouble. And stop doing this behind ur old lady's back cause when you go in a hole she most likely will leave you. Then again what a brilliant way to get out of a love less marriage

                  Pure,

                  I'm glad you won but that sucks that hes paying the others first. He should give you each 3 dimes and pay the rest accordingly. He is possibly hoping you dump a few dimes on baseball and lose.

                  I know my bookie very well, also. I think he would ask the same from me if we were in the same situation. I would be ok with it because I know him well and trust him. If you do, then I say no big deal.

                  Do you know how much he had come in on Memphis all together? Do you think it was close to 15k?

                      I never lied to the women. She never asked how much I was betting...I told her I started up again.

                      Dude I live in iowa...how many big time bookies do you think we have? The big time bookie just got busted by the police. That means, he's in jail right now and his wife who has been known to give head to pay off bets is taking bets... the police know who they all are.... its been in the papers why would you bet there?

                      I Know I'll get paid. He's putting me on a 1g a week payment.

                        With smaller locals you sometimes run into this type of problems from time to time. However at least he offered you a payment plan, so just accept it and be happy your getting paid.

                              ok, so the women is still mad at me and I'm still fixing the virus's she downloaded while downloading here music on the "internet". Same BS another day.

                              I'm hitting the the tables at the casino. riverside, ia here I come. Night guys.

                              He had over 100 bets on memphis. and under 15 on Kansas... Which is why he removed the 1st 10 min and 1st half lines...and didn't offer 2nd halfers either.

                              Lets face it alot of people thought memphis's guards would play better than they did.

                                I think you are right. After a week or so, he will obviously have the money. I think the only problem now is with your lady. A little cash will do alot. Let her vent for a few days, and when it all seems to die down, start doing very nice things for her. It will mean alot more once she is over the fact that you "lied" to her. Its a damngood thing you won!

                                Good luck buddy.

                                  I never lied to her. I told her two weeks ago I started when the tournament started just for the tournament. She's just upset I gambled 5k of our downpayment on the house on the game....

                                    This is a small time book and I would never bet big money with him. Bet small but find another book if you want to bet big

                                      I would kill you, bury you in a shallow grave in my backyard - preferably somewhere where your remains would be of fertile assistance. Then I would collect the 5gs when it came in and donate it, on your behalf, of course, to www.overspendersanonymous.com.

                                          Go "explain" to him how it is so much better healthwise if he pays you and stiffs someone else. You should be able to make him every eager to clear his conscience if you "explain" things correctly. Take some visual props to help with the "explanation". Garden tools, construction tools like a chainsaw, hunting gear, some people are visual learners and understand explanations better if there is visual imagery.

                                            Listen, I would have no problem with my dude betting. As long as he's halfway decent at it and doesn't run us into serious debt, I'm cool with it. But there are two pots of money you just DON'T dip into for your habit: 1.) College funds for the kids and 2.) OUR downpayment for a house. My thought would be: What if you had lost that $5k? Take another $5k to win it back? Before you know it, we would have no downpayment for a home. Your best bet is to grovel for forgiveness. Don't be a weenie and throw a computer virus back in her face. Even if she had ruined the whole damn computer, I bet it would cost less than you put on that game to replace it. $5k is a lot of money. Maybe not to some of you guys on here, but for me (and apparently your girl) it is. You need to put that $5k and then some back in your savings account ASAP. You've got a fighting shot at forgiveness if you make it look like you were just trying to add to the downpayment. Also, chat with your bookie. Tell him you understand and everything is cool, but you'd appreciate getting your money as soon as he has it....because you may not be getting laid until then. Hopefuly, he has a heart.

                                                Purecarnage,
                                                I ran this situation by my bookie and I really like his answer.

                                                If something like that comes up, you really have no choice but accept the payments and be nice about it. What you going to do, sue him? At least he is up front and being real. He could just pack up and leave.

                                                  Well then it shouldn't take very long to pay you if that's the case.

                                                    the 100 bets on memphis = my 5k to even the action out plus the other 10 guys...then the two rich dudes came in late with about 15k on it...between the two of them. So he got lopsided big time about 5 minutes before gametime the otherway...

                                                    Then he got scared and cancelled all halfers/10min bets. He only takes them on championship games or its too much to keep track of.

                                                    But anyways, since the two guys are pretty rich/cocky need my shit now or I'm going to come after you type of guys cuz we are royal douchebags... he's just paying them off and having me wait.

                                                    I don't really think its bad I know I'm getting paid. Already got 1k of it. Keep in mind this guys a small time book his average bet is like 50-150.00 a game. So when three people bet 25k all within 15 minutes of eachother its a big deal.

                                                    See he had alot down on memphis. So he took my bet which is above his limits normally unless you have an exception... To even his total. Then 5 minutes before game time he gets the call from the two loaded guys...

                                                    Anyways, I think he's full of shit to be honest with you. He owns a pretty nice sport bar and some other businesses... I just want to get paid. If I have to wait 5 weeks I'm ok with that. I've been nice and he's tossing me a free tab at his business for my bday. So its all good

                                                      She is putting 3k down I'm putting 25k down on the house. We are schedualed to put 15k down per the pre loan approval crap and loan approvals.

                                                      She has no room to bitch at all. Oh and the computer of mine that I use for work and school that she is NEVER suppose to use, (she has her own friggen nice desktop) she used and downloaded virus's that have removed the control panel and removed the admin permissions to make any changes to the windows tree structure. So basically my computer is royally screwed and I'm spending about 100.00 getting it fixed prob. Cuz I'm lazy and the guys coming to my pad to fix it cuz this is lame. 5 virus programs later nothing removes this biatch.

                                                      So the women is putting enough down to buy the upgraded appliances for the house and thats about it

                                                        Carnage will be in here a year from now divorced and have financial trouble because of it. I am telling you pal what your doing is trouble, how in the fukkin world are you all wrapped up with bookmakers and think your going to have a good relationship. Son gambling is running your life now and will run it in the future. I would get out of this sick thing right now and concentrate on gambling.

                                                        Good Luck Pal and take the payment plan.

                                                          I'm on the payment plan. But when you have your own computer, and you **** up my computer I have issues with that.

                                                          I mean it slike you have your own stuff, **** that up not mine. Told her she's sleeping on the couch until the computers fixed. Not my **** up she can fix it.
