I haven't seen this for a while at Party. Stars had alot of these losers. Any site with micro limits will have their share of broke university/highschool or mullets who work for 6 bucks an hour........

I either tell them that I've already transferred the money or tell everyone that "he hasn't paid me back for last time." Their reactions are usually pretty funny.

You guys are comedic geniuses. You should quit poker and write for Punk'd or Boiling Points.

If they ask "Could I borrow $5 from you?", I usually respond with "How about you give me $5 and I'll owe you $10, OK?"

Him: Can someone please transfer $5 into my account?

Me: I will if you wash my car.

I usually tell them that I'll get my legal people to look at it and send out the contract within the week.

Typically

x: Can someone give me $1?
L: I'll get my legal people to look at it and send out the contract within the week.
x: It's only $1
L: I've been stung like this before
x: A lousy dollar?
L: No problem, if you're honest you have nothing to fear
x: I want you to GIVE me a dollar
L: er? What's in it for me?
x: I play a tourney and give you half what I win, I'm a good player.
L: But if you lose I'm $1 down?
x: yes
L: Excuse me for being thick here, but it seems that most of the time I lose $1, and the rest of the time you keep half of the winnings.
x: yes, that's right
L: Hmmm, my legal people won't like that.
x: Just $1
L: Do you have anything you could give me as collatoral? A credit card number maybe?
x: No, if I had a credit card, I'd have my own $1
L: So you have a bad credit rating?
x: God ITS ONLY $1!!!!
L: If it's only $1, then why are you so upset about the prospect of having to pay it back? Are you a criminal?
x: Please, just send me $1.
L: We've been through this, I don't think it would be wise at this point.
x: Your (sic) an idiot
L: I'm not the one asking for $1, GL.
x: ******

Yes, I do have too much time on my hands, but oh well.

It's based loosely on an old Monty Python sketch where a guy collecting for charity approaches a merchant banker, but they still seem to give the right lines anyway.
