    This guy pled guilty.

    There is still 10 more people to be tried.
    Ok my mistake then. For some reason I thought they only had blood dna or something like that

    All in all I had about six chats with the man at 5D

    One particular chat was regarding a misgrade.
    I dreaded making the call for fear he was going to bite my head off, but I was right.
    I entered the conversation showing nothing but total respect for what he does, firm but polite and respectful.

    Yadda, yadda, yadda, end result, he corrected the mistake, gave me nothing but respect in return, and was totally friendly throughout.

    If you entered a dispute with him like this "Listen here you little thief"
    You're dead in the water.

    It's all in the approach.
    This is true not only in gambling but in all aspects of life. It's how you approach people who need to fix your problems.

    5Dimes was a great book. I miss it.

    Only contact I ever had with Tony was when I was betting a baseball future and asked him if he could raise the limit. He laughed and hung up, lol.

    Did you guys know about the Philanthropy?
    Not sure what to make of it. Could have been legit or could have been mostly P.R. related

    Tony was a dick to me on several occasions. Once I thought a line was off and called in to ask. After a hold I was told it was correct. I asked 'are you sure?' I was told yes, and then I bet it. The line was wrong after all though, and Tony called up and yelled at me at the top of his lungs, berated me, before cancelling the bet and cutting my limits.
