Do you know anybody else that uses him? Have them try to place a bet for you. Don't start any shit til you get paid is the main thing, then you can call him out. Do you know the dude? I can be hired for a price. haha

I feel for you cause I am in the same boat with my local. I buried him over the last 3 years over 50k. He says he could not pay but said he could get me a few hundred a week. I had no choice but to work out payment a little at a time.

I would recommend you keep the door open and explain to him you owe another book some money and really need it.

Be patient, and collect slowly. Otherwise you may get nothing.

Hell my local claims he got busted when I hit him real good last two weeks. What the fuck is going on with these locals being weasels like this all of a sudden. I haven't got paid but my agent (middle man) says he always got paid. It just has to wait for the heat to cool down.

Boy he must be a real small timer if he says he can't pay you $2800-$28000 is one thing , but $2800 to any good and reliable local is chump change.

Let him pay you slowly, but make sure he pays you, just deal with it, if you start shit you'll probably get shit. Once he pays you everything, if you decide to stay with him, you can always tell him you'll make payments, if you ever lose.

That is crazy...I keep hearing about these locals and just shake my head. As I have stated on here lately I have 6 people that wager through me...I haven't paid out more than 200 dollars all year long and have collected over 8000 dollars...and these guys are not huge bettors...200 is usually the max. One guy put 500 on houston yesterday and lost but the majority has been 50's 100's and 200's which was rare. I can not imagine him geting rocked if he has a big base of bettors. When I say a big base for a local I am thinking 50+ guys..the public is the public and the favorites always look enticing to gamblers..I don't see where this guy could of got rocked...maybe he is betting himself..I just don't get it.

A shady dude...when you book this is something you can't do silently especially around your wife. It is a all day thing being a local...if you have any amount of guys wagering through you with a ton of games on the board it can't be a secret if you live with someone. Greek is right--he is lying...something is up.

[MR Pain]

My advice would be yea get whatever you can in payments but stay in touch.... A LOT.....you know the guy so that should be easy for you. This happened to me a wayyyys back when i did use a local, and actually a smaller amount. I didn't know him that well...i got paid 2 weeks then i never saw or heard from him again...gone

I know for a fact my guy was basically a chump, maybe 15-20 players, anyway but i only found out well after he was gone.

and yes he is obviously lying to you, I think you already know that...just try and be patient and work it out, that's the best advice i can give.

Spot on assessment & true. They do not lead normal lives or can hide what they do from a wife.

I'd ask him to be honest, if that is possible & get what you can if it takes some time...& find a new local perhaps.

did you put your money up front?? becuase if you did then its really fucked up!! but if you didnt then ( and i have alot of experience with this) most credit bookies eventually end up dicking the credit player at some point! best way is put your money up and get paid right after the game!! Find a good service (one that pays the same day or next day).... as far a the credit bookie which im assuming he's credit (find out where he lives and make a headache for him and his wife) your not gonna get paid anyways so you mine as well give this guy a headache and drive his wife crazy!!

Best advice you can get right there!
