Is there any legal way possible to get $$ from someone who bet through you. I asked this because one member of this board asked me and my friend to give his bets through our bookie. After winning 275 and 1345 he went on to lose 4000 and now seems like he has fell off the earth. We know his name, # and where he lives but it is in a different state. Is there anyway to get this money? Or just tough luck... Thank you...
 
legally I think you're screwed.

Someone else might be booking this person's action so making us aware of who it is might help someone else not get screwed also.

Which was surprising to me because we had talked and built up trust and he has a website and was highly regarded here and around the internet and for him to do this leaves me in a huge hole I don't have a way to pay it because I do not make BIG bets like that... Why do you ask that it is MasterTX? Any way that would help me... Thanks...

Technically, I think that since you were an intermediary, you could say that this was a loan and litigate for repayment of the loan. However, when the judge asks what the loan is for, you will be admitting to a crime and also implicating your bookie in a crime, so it's not a very good idea. Besides, all the judge can do is issue a judgement - it would still be left uncollected until you get the money, this would essentially just create a public record and official ruling.

Your best bet is to have someone go collect. After all, it has to be paid, it's his debt, and if you don't have that kind of money to cover it then he will have to be the one to caugh it up. Unfortunately, the only people I know for that keep 50%, which would only get you $2000, and I'm not certain that they would travel much for that much money, so that may not be an option for you either.

If nothing else, as was suggested before, make sure every book maker you can is aware of who this guy is. I'm guessing he's already blacklisted though, which is probably why he was going through you to place bets.

I take this back.. MasterTX has got in touch with us and seems he is going to be the right man and pay the funds. I'm sorry for doubting (if he is reading this right now) And MasterTX again proves to me he is a good man.. Later everyone
