Heart Re: Poker Player Brad Booth stole ~$28,000 from Me

I too hope you get your money back, but by the time a scammer becomes well known in the poker community, they owe so much, they can never pay it back, or most importantly, they will not pay it back, and never intended to. Part of this is the Gambler's Fallacy. They get behind and double up thinking they are "due" to win. The fame from the Internet and the poker boom is ideal for scammers. Makes them a celebrity. How many can you think of: Lindgren, Booth, even poor Dutch. I see some props on facebook for stake money. I see a Professor, a writer, and a really bad poker player looking for stake money. Around casinos, there is always a gal locked out of her room and Mama is sending money. There are weirdos with checks they need cashed. There is a broke needing a stake every five yards. You waltz into a gambling joint, gigglin' and grinin', sure of a cinch winning.

Everyone is trying to get your money, and you are trying to get theirs. It is not a place for charity, gullibility, suckerism, soft hearts, and most importantly of all, casinos are pure hell on folks who lie to themselves. If you do not have a precise read on your self, stay out of gambling joints. Sunday school and Cub Scouts needs a few good leaders.

You've got to be the most cynical man on 2 + 2. You should get out of poker/gambling ASAP for your own good.
