    best way finding a local?

    fed-up with limits, paranoia, and just overall cloning of lines. And on top moving BTC transferring losing usually between withdrawals/deposits etc. Headache after headache.
    Any PM's would appreciate, in the Los Angeles area.
    Im sure other posters have asked. Dont know if I can ask here/should but enough is enough cant stand the offshores anymore.
    Looking for balls not vaginas (geez did I really say that)

    You are opening yourself up to be ripped off asking this.

    If you don't know someone who knows the local's history personally to refer you, I'd avoid it.

    Visiting your local sports bar would be better than asking online I think.

    Find local poker games and you’ll find bookie also at OTB’s.....applies same if you need loan shark..the guy who runs my local poker game books through pay per head site which sucks though he pays everytime....I will also say as I’ve been playing poker at his games for 20 years more people stiff the bookie then other way...so many people just disappear never come to poker o otb anymore and reason is they get stuck deep with bookie or loan shark and just don’t come around.....too easy to get stuck w bookie better off offshore imo

    You think it's easy with a local right???

    Wait until you place a few wagers with SAID LOCAL....

    He'll watch your wagering patters... and start clipping you a half a point... sometimes 1 full point.

    Using a local won't solve any of these issues, imo, at least not in the long run.

    This is the only reason why someone should bet with one of these guys
