wasn't it like literally a $10 fee for like a $300 pool?

Unfortunate but enjoyable

someone should link "propplayer" here from SB...he's really, really good at getting people to pay.

that said, why hasn't anyone shared tdomes personal info yet? i assume he told yall that if you did you'd never get paid, but at the very least someone PM me his personal info, then either prop or i will start to hunt him down, find his online weakness, and turn this into a real-life problem for him.

for real. RM or anyone, pm me as much personal info as you have, and either i'll find him or someone else will.

him knowing this isn't just an imaginary number on the internet will obviously motivate him to start paying people. much moreso than the way it is now, where he feels like sending people $10/month or whatever he thinks he's going to do will.

i ****ing HATE scammers.

lol

wipers been drannnking

My guess is you'll be passed out in your truck in a ditch somewhere in Tennessee, wake up forget what you were doing and drive back home.

Legit loled at both of these.

ok I am allowing myself one more refresh before I go to sleep.

Someone escrowing 15K should get a small fee. I mean on top of the millions they make by investing the float in bitcoins.

Admo was looking into a guy that scammed me and others in the hsnl sports betting thread 4-5 years ago. Never got $ from the guy and admo said he wasn't able to get anything. Always a chance he just collected in our names and didn't pay out. I'm gonna go with no tho.

Have you guys ever been owed a substantial amount of $ from a poker player? What's he going to make if he gets a job? 12/hour? How can you expect him to put all that toward repayment? Is he not supposed to buy gasoline, buy food, pay bills, etc.?

Best chance in these situations to get repaid is for him to play poker and get paid in chunks when he goes on good runs. Yes, poker and a job would be best, but those saying he shouldn't play poker are delusional. If he gets a job at 12/hour, how much of that 1960/month will actually be able to go to repayment? 300? That'd take him 4 years to repay it back

Let's be realistic here

I think you missed the part where he lost $15 ****ing grand playing poker

<-

Possible solution: If after he binks a tournament he pays back the recipients of the 15k in double (so $30k prize pool). Then pays each entrant a $100 for their trouble. Would probably make all parties involved feel better about the situation.

not the point.

I think I'm getting paid back more from a set amount of small money from some hump job with no poker involved than I am by hoping for a poker score.

Also, why exactly would I think I'm getting paid out on a score and that it won't be used it to run up a stake or pay life expenses? It might, but not sure why I'd assume that.

I also doubt the backer is a bottomless money pit. Some run bad or c game play from a guy not in a great place mentally and that will run its course. If it was that easy to find a backer the money wouldn't have been stolen in the first place.

As I said, hope it works out and tdomeski gets his life together. I wish him well. But I'd feel a lot better with a real plan that gets actual money out, even if small, rather than hoping for poker to turn and an aggressive payment schedule

Work two jobs. Waiters easily average $20-25 an hour at like any chain restaurant. Work nights there, some 12-15$/hr job during the day.

Lol @ playing staked poker (esp a guy who just stole 15k and degenned it off) being more reliable than just working like crazy for a few months. But he won't do that because he's lazy and it's easy to just sit home and play poker with some other guy's money and hopefully he binks and pays back.

I'm on my phone so I can't find it but there's a thread in the marketplace some guy got staked for WSOP and degenned the money off, he got a sales job or something and worked like crazy for a few months and paid it all back. Think it may have even been more than 15k even.

This is always my thought when these come up and it is never shared. I can never figure out which side of the delusional coin I fall on, but seems I'm in the minority.

yes obviously this assuming he has ~$0 and isn't saving ~10k in a bank account for life expenses

Any reason to keep this thread open still? People getting mad and some nasty shats getting fired along with old grudges coming out.

Lock it up, imo.

Well I have made like a dozen college football related bets with other posters over my years on 2+2, and I've never once paid anyone anything. Does that make me a scammer?

Looks like you listed three reasons.

and another LOL to people saying that tdomeski lost ~15k in complete distress therefor he is not capable of playing winning poker.

my biggest question is, him and yellow sub were always like real buddy buddy. why didn't he just have him pay the 15k to save his reputation and pay back him privately with interest or something. its crazy the poker circle he was in, he can't resolve this without ruining himself. unless he burned bridges with those guys

if i had any integrity at all and owed people 15k i would spend every hour either working or trying to find real work instead of a strategy where i hope to get lucky gambling someone else's money and either win it back or don't pay up anyway
