I want to be a local, best PPH site to use?

You just need a few friends that will put pressure on the kids to pay if they don't. You don't need some vanilla ice tactic like what happened to goldy, just some guys that run harassment until the debt is settled. If the amount of credit you are extending to your "friend" is worth physically harming them then I would say keep them on an amount you could handle if/when you get stiffed. Personally I would not book bets from my friends other than friendly side wagers but I certainly understand why guys do. Great way to make money for sure.

Edit sorry Reigle I have no worthwhile help on your original post.

[jjgold]

It's not worth the hassle and plus this guy looks like a bubblegum bookmaker he probably has $800 in Christmas money to pay out

[Covy]

Cap losses and max bets and limit parlays to 4 teamers

when they pay, you can raise the cap on their bets/losses


never done it...just seems like common sense

You're in dream land if you think that's how bookies operate. Maybe 1% are tough guys like the movies. 99% will never lay a finger on a no-pay no matter the amount. They may phone the guy and his family but it never goes beyond that because
A) When someone is physically threatened then always go to the cops
B) The amounts relative to the jail time received for conspiracy/harrassment and aggrevated assault are not worth it when you consider they'll be likely another case invovling booking on top of those charges.

There's lots of stories out there of big stiffs 300k+ stealing from large "connected" shops and nothing happens to them. In dream movie land enforcers and bookies are kings but the reality is they are more likely just another undercapitalized college student looking to book the MMA/college action with a pph of their somewhat more retarded suburban friends when they're drunk watching mma/college stuff on tv.

Okay well I think personally if I were shafted for 6 figures I would want to do more than make a phone call. As I stated I don't involve myself in that kind of work for that reason. Not sure why you felt the need to target me where Gold is the one that said he was hung over a balcony for 2 weeks. I don't claim to know what happens or if jj is just full of it but that's what I was responding too.

Peer pressure tactics can work and is what I would employ to get repayment personally.

[jjgold]

Guys your out of your league with booking

Times have changed

Lol all tough cookies

Except the one way ticket to Costa Rica, or anywhere out of US jurisdiction. Will the Feds allow even small timers to stay in the game? College kids?

Seems like by the time you get to a worthwhile reward, your risk will have grown too great.

[jjgold]

Lol

Booking $20 bettors


Why??

Recipe for disaster

Shocked at all the useless Internet expert replies. One guy that isn't an Internet know-it-all (loser) pm'd me with actual info. Thank you to him.

Collective reply to all the jagoff replies: Just cause you're an idiot doesn't mean I am. It's really incredible reading some of these replies.

[reigle9]

why would you want to be your friends' bookie? obviously you don't care much about your friendship.

Read again...

[reigle9]

I helped a local book games in college. Gave me a cut of the action, but more importantly he backed me financially. Your friends can get hot and break you. Real question is do you have enough $ to start up. Takes more than you think.

Yes I have plenty plus I'm not stupid. This is going to be a theme in this thread.

[reigle9]

old local bar guys have no money and will just be taking shots at you, eventually stiffing you and laughing about it. college kids definitely have no money and think they know everything and could care less about stiffing you after they take their shots. you need to rethink your customer base as you can't win money off people who don't have any.

Complete ignorance, aka Internet expert.

[reigle9]

Guy is right. Not the most stable of customer bases. You have to plan for a % of no pays. Thus another reason you better be rolled.

Does anyone actually read? What's so hard to understand about "start with". Plus you're just wrong, that customer base is the most stable. Not like im letting guys run up a 4 figure bill before I collect. I hate that I have to reply with common sense shit. I'm not stupid.

[reigle9]

I'm already done replying. 4 pages of useless garbage, never could've seen that coming.

[reigle9]

I flew first class to Punta Cana and drive a luxury sportscar. Again, just cause you and most people on the Internet are broke dipshits, doesn't mean everyone is. Don't ever reply to my threads. You're completely useless and the fact you live for your constant jagoff replies is embarrassing to witness.

It is. Glad some people can add 2+2.

Reigle, IMO, starting out in this business is very difficult for 2 reasons ...
1) The vast majority of trustworthy gamblers are already aligned with a book
2) The vast majority of deadbeat gamblers are what's available to new books

Anyway, I wish you luck.

[daneblazer]

Ya good luck hoss, hope you do well for yourself.

[reigle9]

Ya good luck hoss, hope you do well for yourself.

I will. It won't be hard. All I wanted to know is if anyone has any direct knowledge of a pph shop. Idc about the 4 pages of experts with literally zero actual knowledge on the subject. The one guy with actual knowledge pm'd me, like I kind of figured would happen.

Btw, my annoyance with Internet dorks isn't directed at you.

I would explain more deeply how this isn't a big deal, but it would just be critiqued with more raging ignorance.

I get where you're coming from though. Doing something like this probably seems like crazy talk on the Internet filled with braindead losers.

[DiggityDaggityDo]

I have no knowledge of how to get started doing this.

I'm only here to find out where to get a toe.

It's been a while since I've done it, so I'm sure a few things have changed. My experiences with college kids is that most pay, some win, some leave for the semester or the summer and slow pay, a small percentage bet over their heads and stiff. There will always be college kids, so in that regard they are stable. You know who your customers are better than anyone here though. One thing I didn't like is taking bets every day. No breaks. It weared me out. I didn't use software like this though. Good luck

[JoeyBagels]

I guess this thread must have hit a little too close to home. I mean easily tilted from comments when he solicits advice is the worst possible place anyway. Must have been sanduskied at penn state to be this fragile.
