Need advice on collecting a very large debt....

[turnipmonster]

in a home game, everyone should buy in and the money should be kept in a bank. in the home games I sometimes play, the guy who runs the game (the house) buys in the same as everyone else. you're probably not going to see the money, but it's incredibly naive to think he's good for it in the first place. I mean, you're playing the guy heads up for christsakes.

This is one of those jokes where you come back later and say.... "oh, and the stakes were actually in *cents* not dollars....."


Right?

First off, don't go into business, cause you really suck at details.

Ive played a cat on credit before after he ran out of cash. At the end of the night before he was allowed to leave I had him sign a promissory note for the amount owed. Payable on X date. He was not excited about the prospect of signing the paper, so I told him it was either sign the paper or give me his wedding ring as collateral. He signed the paper. I collected the money.

Though he knew he wasn't walking out of there until things got squared away.

Write it off. Gambling debts are not enforceable in most states. The only thing you can do is let others who play with this guy that he is a welcher. This might keep other people from making the same mistake. I will echo what others said about only playing for cash on the table.

OMG u guys suck at this, you kidnap the dog, wife, son, daughter, or other loved one and cut off his/her paw/hand and put that under the pillow. Then if he doesnt pay he simply keeps collecting body parts...not the head first, never the head first...head fist is just silly.

You've really thought this through. Respect.

Hey!!! That dog never did anything to him. Bastard.

Now, if he has a cat, on the other hand . . . that's just fine.
