act as the middle man for all the inside bets that go around offered on this website.

I see a bunch of posters wanting to make bets among themselves about various things on almost a daily bases. Most of us have a Pinny, Hollywood or CRIS account. It would be nice if we could make some of these forum bets among ourselves and have the money transferred from one posters account to the others. I think this would open up alot of fun competition among all the posters.

What it would do is open up a HUGE MESS in my humble opinion.

If you posters want to make wagers with yourselves, YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN & THE RX will not be held responsible.

Thats why it would be nice to have someone like pinny or skybook to act as the middle man. The loser of the bets could pay a 2 to 5% vig to make it worth the sportsbooks trouble.

If fact, to go one step further, I think there should not even be the smallest degree of soliciting other posters on this forum for gambling ventures.

ANY of you engaging in this practice is asking for NOTHING but trouble..........the RISKS far outweigh the rewards on numerous accounts.

That is the purpose of EXCHANGES.

You may go to numerous betting EXCHANGES and offer others your wagers.

We are a forum of degenerate gamblers (including myself) win or lose. These bets of course are bound to happen. When aired here it's good entertainment.
