how to find a local bookie?

put some ads in the newspaper

In all seriousness word of mouth. It's an underground activity so go to the same sports bar a few times a week and start talking to some people. Once they see you in there 3-4 times they'll trust you enough to give you a name.

where are you from

allabout the $$$ · 10-05-11, 07:14 PM

he is not from the us if he has a pinnacle account

not in the us, not gonna get much help

Listen up guy

If you don't have a local by now, forget about it

Stick with offshore books. You will get in over your head with a bookie and end up butt naked in a hot tub getting your ass rammed. You dint want that. Just ask JJ

Ignorant American, luckly I'm not ignorant enough to think all American's are as ignorant as you.

If you're from Canada, you can probably find a local. As stated above, it's a "word of mouth" type of thing. I have no idea if there are locals across the pond (at least not like the US).

My god...you certainly don't make it easy though, to not generalize all american's as ignorant, that is. People like you make a strong case for stereotyping

only hockey players and hookers in cananda, what team does your girl play for?

go to a local sports bar before the game starts. look for the guy on his cell phone with pen and paper. he is getting the line from local book. get to know him and he will set you up

fishmonger · 10-05-11, 09:02 PM

Ask one of your asian friends. They will not be offended. ALL asians know a bookie or someone who bets. The boyfriends of the nail shop ladies definitely bet if they are vietnese. I would bet my life on that.

Is that true david lopan?

put an ad on craigslist.... when the person responds ... say are you a cop?

they have to tell you if they are law enforcement ... otherwise it's entrapment

really?....I really need to explain that one?

an entire industry in the middle of a desert survives off the answer to your question

jjgold · 10-06-11, 11:22 AM

some guys like dealing with cash so locals your best option

Holtgetsback · 10-06-11, 11:24 AM

bad idea

the only reason las vegas survives is because its illegal to gamble online and in most other places in the united states

pinnacle odds > local odds
pinnacle betting options > local betting options

not to mention the fact that with pinnacle you can deposit, place bets, withdraw without getting out of bed, not to mention that depending on your local, your money is probably a lot more safer in pinnacle, pinnacle will never stiff a player, I am sure a local would

I understand the value of a local, but convenience is not one of the reasons

Ice House · 10-06-11, 11:36 AM

ask your local bartender.....

Ice House · 10-06-11, 11:37 AM

be careful though... usually these guys are pretty gangsta and they will break your legs if you don't pay

crjohnson32 · 10-06-11, 06:46 PM

I've never made a bet on credit and I don't plan on starting. I use a prepaid CC to deposit at pinnacle

allabout the $$$ · 10-06-11, 06:49 PM

so if you dont play on credit how come you would like a local?

antifoil · 10-06-11, 07:07 PM

locals will hang bad number that are ripe for the picking.
