Default Credit sportsbooks?

I hear people talking about credit shops and I don't know what they mean. Clue me in. Books let you play first and settle the account later? What books are they? How do you get started?

Son your fist need an agent that represents the book and handles the cash transactions

Son you get a certain figure to play with like say 3 Dimes and when you hit that number on plus or minus side you meet him and settle up.

When you have a 3 Dime credit account as you make bets the bets are deducted off the top so it is not a pure credit account

Son places like Cris, Cascade, Grande are pretty big credit outfits

Son you need to be trusted and known by the agent to have a shot with one.

Good Luck

Thats funny. When I asked that question I was almost going to say that a response from jjgold was not wanted.

jj, you deserve to have a new a-hole ripped for taking that tone with anyone. You are the little posting forum dweeb. Most of the people here bet on sports. You need to learn your place, kid.

I don't know if anything you said here is true. I have been watching this forum since it opened and I have seen you post so much wrong info that I don't believe anything you say. If your life revolves around having a big number of posts, you should just post smilies and let the people who bet have a good forum. At least don't be a douche about it.




Now is there anyone who isn't the village idiot that knows anything about my question? Bill Dozer? Mudact? John?

Credit shops are a completely different thing than post ups. With credit things get a bit more complicated because you have a weekly credit and every week you only have that amount of money to bet on, if you loose that is it for that week, if you win you will get paid but your balance goes back to 0 and you get your credit limit again to start over for that week. If you are a really active player credit is for you, if you like to bet only a couple of games a week stick to post up for the bonuses and promotions.
Almost every sportsbook have at least one credit package, it is the most effective way to make money in the short run. The only thing is that for somebody to give you credit offshore you need someone the sportsbook knows to reccomend you, or you have to find some sportsbook that has "generals" around your area. "Generals" are those guys that if you don't pay will visit you and send you to the hospital.

By the way JJgold is a senior member in almost every forum... I don't have much information about him but I'm sure that a poster that has so much respect in almost every forum has to be someone and has to know his way around in the industry.

OTP,

Playing on credit is just how it sounds. It means you have a line of credit at a betting site. If you lose you have a negative balance which is also called "red". When your red amount reaches a certain point you have to settle your balance on Monday or Fridays. If you do not play for a period of time you will settle it.

Most of the who, when and where depends on your agent and the plan he put you on. The only difference between having a local and a book credit account is that you have the benefit of wagering online. My guys also have to call me and give multiples of 5. So if they want a bet for a nickel they call me and ask for 100x on .... If I had used a betting site I would just check their action there.

Another difference is they can pay the site directly. There is an advanatage to this. I would like it if my potato people could just neteller their money but I like to think of myself as small time with no records of anything that is not hand written.

I worked for a credit book, years ago, and when it comes to pay day it's a big hassle, they don’t pay employees on time, never.

Now I’m gambling big time.

Oh,,, Jay, this is not a site to make friend, if want to make friends go to DISNEYLAND.

I wasn't looking for a fight. I asked a simple question. Where I come from, calling a stranger "son" over and over is a douchebag move. Period. I come here ready to behave with some common courtesy and I think other people should to.

Like I said. I didin't know if the advice was good or not. I've seen you post a lot of info I know is wrong so I don't know what to pick and choose from your posts. I wouldn't have jumped on you except for your unprofessional tone.

And I'm not looking for credit. I'm looking for information.




Thank you for the answers on the topic. I don't really understand why it is the most effective way to make money in the short run.

To me it seems like it's a big recipe for trouble for people who don't know how to gamble to get themselves in deep trouble.

I don't know which shop you worked at.... When it cames to getting paid even at a candy shop it could be an hassle. That your employer was irresponsible it doesn't mean that all credit shop don't pay their employees.

I'm not here to make friends, but is somebody is asking for help and you are so experienced you should be nice enough to help the guy.

Since my name came up earlier, I feel like I should say something. I have never played at a credit shop so I basically have to plead ignorance. It's like playing with a local. I've never done it so I only know what I've read.

Personally, my reaction was very similar to OldeTyme's about calling him "son" over and over. What was up with that? A little more general respect is called for IMO.

A post up player can last several weeks with one deposit untill he loses or wins at some point.
Credit player give you much more action and every week they start from scratch, it is hard to biuld a huge bankroll with credit in a short period of time. Credit is much more addictive, once you know you have credit you keep on playing and playing and you never stop.
If you consider that at least 90% of the players loose all the time, if you have a package of 100 credit players at an avarage of $5000 credit per player per week your are going to make much more money than 500 post up customers with an avarage of $500 deposits.
Hope I was helpfull...

Oldtyme,

A credit account works the way your agent sets it up. The rules can differ. I would assume that the better the book, the better quality of agent they work with. These individuals are stateside and are susceptible to the same laws that can affect local bookies. The obvious advantage is that you will not have to deposit in order to place a wager.

In my opinion, betting on CREDIT has more advantages than posting up your own money...

The obvious EDGE is the fact that a gambler doesn't have to TIE up his MONEY....

And perhaps just as important, the gambler can usually get down on more games and for larger volume than your average post up account...

Something very interesting is happening in ANTIGUA called "KNOW YOUR CUSTOMER" act or law.

What this means now is that sports books who accept bets from Gamblers, whether it be Post Up or Credit, may be held responsible if the customer is passing out DIRTY money...

By this, I mean those customers who may have obtained their money through ILLEGAL methods...

Even IF the sports book wasn't aware of HOW the gambler got his money, they could be FORCED LEGALLY to return ALL of it despite the fact the bookmaker WON the bet...

Believe it or not, there are some sports books who now use private detectives if they remotely suspect any of their customers to be involved in FOUL PLAY...

When I talked about this with one offshore sports book, I asked whether they would turn the customer in, and he said in most cases, "NO, we would just terminate the account and send the money back..."

That's a good lesson for you jj. People of substance respect humility. Quality always wins over quanitity.

If you focus less on typing and your number of posts and more on reading and learning from the good people at this site, you won't make so many mistakes and you'll have a chance to be respected someday son.
