One of my guys just sent me a $16,000 to win $400 on OU ML. Should I book this even though he is not good for the 16k or what?

You need to make sure that he has some means of paying you the money if he loses otherwise there is little to no value in taking that bet

Seems like a lose lose situation to me. He wins you lose 400. He loses you don't get paid 16,000.

I would take it down to a denomination you know he could pay.

whos it on, i want to take the other team plus the points. there is no way he is not going to have to sweat that one.

I wouldnt take it because if he is in the hole for that much you lose his regular business also. I wouldnt take it because you dont benefit from it either way

now, if you got the right connections, you'd book it and own the guy for life if he don't pay the 16 large. if you ain't got the connection, i wouldn't mess with it.

no shot i'd take it. you are likely out $400 and probably won't get paid 16k. and if he did lose, you'd lose all his future bets (which could likely equal 16k over a few years), but no shot you get 16k at once

Tell him to bring you the cash in hand before you book it. You should do that for anything over $1000 anyway, unless you know the guy to have the cash.

I eneded up telling him max I would book that at was risking $1,000. He passed as I was thinking he would.

These guys are so dumb. They try to hustle me and find an edge all the time.

They tried to send late bets, tease 1Q's, tease 1Q team totals.

They are just pissed they can't win. I catch them everytime though lol.
