Holding Action

[jjgold]

Don't do it unless your very experienced like me and have a nice bankroll. It is so easy to get buried doing this. It basically means when one of your buds wants to make a bet you do not call it into the bookmaker but hold the action yourself. It is risky actually on both ends.

Advice for all here..........call in your buds or friends plays to the professionals.

if it's a parlay you best believe i'm holding action on his ass ............. well atleast to a moderate friend

this is good advice.

If you don't like money...

If you're gonna hold a friends action, be prepared to pay the consequences. It will go south on you at some point. Its not if, its just a matter of when.

Don't be scared.

well you know what i always wanted the feeling of being a bookie .......... so if i loose i'll pay the man nuff said but i would only do this in a certain advantage that i felt comfortable with

I was actually making good money "holding action" for a couple of my close friends...then they all went on hot streaks at the same time and I got buried.

still do it every once in while

I had a friend at a book , that told another buddy to go downtown and put in a bet for him to the Casino Tropical since he was tied up and couldnt do it.

The parlay was for $300 with 2 big boxing dogs.

Well sure enough the 2 teamer hit and it paid $1850.

The other dude never put the bet in as he saw it as a long shot and never paid my friend not even the $300 he posted up ... I did it once and was lucky enough the game was a blowout .

BUT JJ is right , karma is a bitch and chances are if you hold the action the play will come through

The guy even stole his original 300? Damn.

[SSLP]

Yeah he said the casino said he was a sharp player and wouldnt even pay him his $300.

Of course thats BS , you can walk up to the teller with 10k and they will pay on the spot.

That dude was lucky my friend is a cool guy and $300 isnt much to him , you do that to the wrong dude and your fuct
