After hitting him for 30 dimes this week and over 75 dimes in the past 2 months, he took me out to dinner and because he loves me like a son he offered me 3 phones in his office that he isn't using to book with. He's 70 yrs old and wants to slow down and is offering me half his customers to start off with. He has bout 120 customers overall. Not sure if i should be on the other end though?? Man having thick envelopes handed to me is the best, tracking down 60 customers every Tuesday might be aggravating at the least. Might pass on this one!

Fish,

That is the primary concern, having a record already, there would be no pitty from the judge. I'm staying clear but the offer was tempting. I know if they get pinched , me as the new kid on the block, I'd beset up to go first,lol!

can you not get a fed tax and pay taxes as a book and they will be fairly lean?

I always thought it was the money they wanted!

This forum has some of the best cappers going! I make money off certain posters, fade some and all in all I'm on the plus side follwing here! Yes Fishy offshore is where its at today. If I was offered again like I was 25 years ago bookmaking ,which I was, I'd pass. But back then I should've jump at the chance when I had it when I was 21. Today you can't beat offshore. Many futures, parlaying different sports, betting a game at midnight,lol! try to get a hold of a local for a Hawaii game. Only down fall is for paying for money transfers. But ask your local for a reload bonus or signup bonus and see what he says. Fish you are 100% correct, offshore is where its at. Glad college hoops are here cause it is the easiest money maker today, college hoops!

Funny you say that GA, my main local guy has one customer that has only had to pay 3 weeks out of 2 years,lol. Unbelievable, he even bets and edges off most of this guys action so he doesn't mind taking his action. Actually he makes money off this guys plays. Tell your local to edge off your action and stop being a ***** and cut you off.

IF he doesn't pay you in full, and offers his customer list as a settlement, take it, but check your state laws first to determine if the reward is worth the risk.

Chalk,

Get paid in full and pay in full EVERY Tuesday. He just wants me to take over some of his action cause hes getting up in age and does most of his collecting himself. Wants to retire and for now ease up his list of clients. I'd get the customers far away so he doesn't have to travel as far! Here in NY he is a runner for a very large operation plus been booking for over 40 years. I'd rather stay on this side of the fence after thinking bout it. With offshore at ones fingertips, you can't go wrong there!

JJ,

i am passing even me being in NY it would be my 2nd offense so no slap on the wrist for me. Not worth it after thinking bout it. Offshore is much less stressfull than chasing people every Tuesday!

TryTry,

This past weekend I started out with a 2 dime bet on Wisconsin, followed with a 4 dime bet on Notre Dame. Won both so I bet 8 dimes on Chicago Bears, after I won that I played 16 dimes on Denver. Only 4 games with a 2 dime investment to collect 30 dimes.

GA,

Whenever betting with a local ALWAYS ask the line of the team that is playing your team. You will get a better line 100% of the time! That happened to me a few years back. i was in my locals hangout and all week I kept saying I like the Raiders. Come Sunday EVERYONE had -3. He figured I like Oakland so he'd screw me and give me the hook,lol. I handed him 5,500$ up front and said give me the other way,lol. The game ended with Oakland winning by 3. Paid me the next day and never pulled that s hit with me again. After that day never played with him again.

are you for real.... 5-10 in the PEN for booking Bets?

In Canada first & second offence would be a slap on the wrist.... thats it.....

I am really starting to wonder about this "land of the Free" that you call the United States....

Yes JJ a street guy I am. From Broad Street in Newark to Journal Square in Jersey City to Down town North Bergen, to Union City's transfer station, to Main street in Kearny and Lyndhurst, to the Meadowlands, have many contacts. Bet with the biggest and the smallest,lol. Only all my connections are smart and book in NYC where the penalties are less.

The Bears and Denver played at the same time. How could you double up on Denver when the bears won? You think you would have the details correct after wagering so much.
