Today he said he wont chase, and his bets confirm that, this is the first time hes played $50 reverses and not $100. He also said if he takes a hit tonight he might just stop and settle up Saturday. I trust him, and I like Dayton tonight so maybe he will do good.

if you want to keep this guy going , you want him to win Dayton tonight and miss some of the other games , you don't want to send him to the cemetary every night

what you have to bea ready for is if he gets down big he may go to the 4 or 5 team parlay and try to take a shot to get everything back in 1 shot , that might happen on say the final 4 on sat if he is way behind

He is going away for a week Sunday, we agreed 3 weeks ago "this week" ends friday night, and if hes down he cant bet the final four till he settles.... He really wantes to bet the Final 4 and title game, but he knew well ahead of time he would have to settle up first, he basicley has 4 days Today-Fri, we are getting together Saturday morning, already set, up either way. I almost want him to get smashed tonight be down like 1700 and settle up and be done, I will have made about 3k in a month if that happens, and Ill be happy with all of it.

Sounds like the guy needs an intervention.

When he called we talked for about 15 minutes, I told him his number is getting high and to not put me in a bad place "because he thinks Im calling everything in" He said its not a problem, if he gets to or over $1500 he will stop and come pay me and end it.

I hope you are right, but usually they can pay the first couple of weeks. He will go bad and not pay sooner or later. Your best case scenario is him losing a few hundred a week for an extended period of time. He is such a crappy gambler he has no option but to stiff you. I know you don't like me but ask Gales what he thinks, this is what is going to happen. Gales has seen this before. Get as much out of him as you can because you will eventually get stiffed. Good luck
