Hey Guys....

i have a bookie who works for betcc and he deals with hundreds of people per week. I am only 24 years old and i have been with him for over a year and have probably paid him about $8k since i have been working with him and never win. This time i got in and lost it all... i owe him $2,000. I know this is a terrible idea to have done but i just flat out cant pay him...i need some honest feedback what to do... will he do something drastic to me for $2k when he deal with guys who bet $5k-$10k per game?~?~ im scared... help!

be honest.



You flunked up

obviously you have a type of gambling problem

you lost sense of the value for money
almost thinking its monopoly money



Please let me make affordable payments

I'm sorry it will never happen again

I promise..

If $2,000 is a lot of money for you, which I hope it isn't since you fucking gambled it away, just stop talking to him and ignore his calls.  Its not like he knows where you live.
















If he knows where you live, refer to BarryDingle's post.

Barry will not like this post by me But I say do unto others as blah blah blah you know the rest and if I were going into the bookie business I would be 100% aware that I was going to get stiffed every once in a while.

he just wants his money. Tell him he will get it. Give him whatever you got and tell him it will keep coming. He doesnt want to lose a customer....

Train iis a bookie.  Gee how did I know I must be a wizard.


He doesn't want to lose a customer Why would anyone want to lose a personal ATM like MatSum

Is it just me, or do we see a thread like this about once a month - from a member who has only been on Covers for about a month or so....?

The dude is broke and you're asking him to buy a gun?

Talk to the bookie and have a payment plan arranged that you afford and stick with it. By Sept, you should be ready for the NFL season where you can get your money back.

Like others have said, you are an idiot for betting that much money, when it sounds like you don't have it. Only thing to do is be honest with the guy and make payments.
