Betting Strangers
  • I was observing an online game tonight, and noticed a player, unworthy of their first place holding of chips with 20 players remaining. I made a $100 bet, with them, that they accepted, that I would win if they did not make top 3, and they would win if they did. With 7 people left this person looked destined to be knocked out with 1 & 1/2 BB. This person starts to make comments like good luck collecting off me, you don't know me, you can't find me. Essentially saying they are not paying. A few lucky hands and this player makes the top 3........Interested in comments, thoughts and suggestions on this, thanks...

  • Betting vs strangers with no escrow is asking to be freerolled
  • It really depends on your read. I've chopped tournies on stars before the mod came, with the winner shipping back, if I played the regular a bit. In theory no, but it really depends.
  • i basically wont trust anyone i dont know when it comes to betting
  • This tournament occured on playnow.com, and the transfer of money appears to be a no-no on here, but I would have no problem paying cash at any casino in GVRD, (but not after these comments).....On a side note, I did not play this tournament, I have been lurking at tables collecting information on different players...
