If every person here could bet on credit. More than 30% would become stiffs

Re: If every person here could bet on credit. More than 30% would become stiffs

double that % and you'd be closer to correct, most guys don't have the mentality to bet on credit. it takes a special kind of gambler to be able to do the dance with a number at the end of a week, seen some good ones but more rare than not.

Almost everyone loses and sooner or later they can't pay.


I Only bet on Credit and have done so now for 26 Years.

Only Once went on a payment plan, that was about 22 years ago.

Not sure if this is true or not, because when I bet online, I feel like I am betting on credit. It's weird, because, even though I put money in, its not the same as making a real bet, sometimes it feels like play money. And that is my problem with online gambling, but I still love it, just makes it harder. And no, I have never lost to much, done anything like that, just my thoughts.

You are not alone Phil.
I know I sometimes feel exactly the same, as if it's a video game with play money as you said.
It doesn't affect my wagering at all, but it's just something in my head, same as you......

There is a very real reason casinos issue you chips (checks in England). It is then as if you are already not playing for money like you would be if a friend spread out a craps clothe on his pool table.

That's how I have felt sometimes also. It feels like I am just playing a computer game when I look at my sportsbook account balance. It's only real money when you ask for a payout and deposit it in a bank account instead of a sportsbook.

No way it's 30%. The locals could never survive.
 
Re: question?

Re: question?

better gamblers


post up?

credit?


thoughts...................

Good question...

I do think it is tougher for a bookie to beat credit players. A post up player is LIMITED by whatever amount is in his account, whereas most credit players usually have more than enough credit to do as they wish...

More proof?

I know of at least one large credit package in this industry that very few sports books want betting with them whereas the same cannot be said of post up players...
