Am I a dick?
 

I lost a bet to another guy in my office on the All Star game. I picked the NL and he picked the AL. He has been rubbing it in my face since I got in the office. I hate to lose bets and am kind of a degen. So I made the statement to him I will never lose a bet to him ever again. So he said ok, lets bet on this. So we decided to bet 50 dollars I would not lose a bet to him for the rest of 2007. I wrote it on a piece of paper and we both signed it. After the bet was taken he wanted to know what we were going to bet on first. I told him nothing, I am not betting with you on anything for the rest of the year. He got mad, called me a scumbag and said I made a shady bet and that now he doesn't want to pay me. Am I a dick or he is a dick?

I can't believe that guy didn't see this coming. Are you sure you didn't make this up?

Re: Am I a dick?
 

he's a dick if he doesn't pay off and a moron for taking the bet. i hope you got odds for picking the NL, otherwise you're a moron too.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

The bet was only for lunch, no need to give odds on an 8 dollar bet plus I am a huge mets fan so I would never have bet against NL because then I couldn't root for them. But he made a few comments about the lunch so I said I will never lose a bet to him again and after the bet was made and I told him I will win this because I will not make a bet with him for the rest of the year and he got real mad and called me a scumbag and said he is not gonna pay me now. I just want to make sure I am not being a dick.

If I were you, I would be thinking about all the future prop bets I would be winning against this idiot.

Yeah, anyone this dumb, I think you're missing out on a lot of value by abstaining for a year.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

I think this is hilarious and you are not a dick.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

why would u do this betting is fun

Re: Am I a dick?
 

He is a dick. Nice bet.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

you're both dicks, but you're funny at least.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

If he didn't make a condition that you had to make X bets during the year, then he's just a prop bet idiot. He has to pay.

wow he's stupid. if he insists on making another bet, then prop bet him that you can finish a chicken sandwich in 3 hours.

Awesome bet, you're not a dick and your buddy is a moran.

Actually, this is the right play, just offer tons of totally impossible to lose bets for the rest of the year.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

he got level and it pissed him off. he is a douche

Re: Am I a dick?
 

Not a dick. Sounds like you might want to offer a chop so you can continue making +EV bets.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

This is just good prop betting, not being a dick.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

I love how NT! quoted his own post.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

Not prop betting with him for the rest of the year would be -EV

Re: Am I a dick?
 

i like your idea. obviously your strategy is correct. not a dick

Re: Am I a dick?
 

i can't believe you're using your hustle up on this guy on some $50 bet, considering you're able to get him to sign stuff.

you should have gone much, much larger with your last bet with this dude ever.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

you're not really a dick, he's a sucker for taking that bet.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

Go further on the meta spiral, and bet that you are going to win the very next bet this year, and then make that bet that will be that you win the last two bets.

Turn this monkey's head into a pretzel.

something about this line has me cracking up really hard.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

Here's what I think the most +EV play is... offer him a buyout... anywhere ranging from lunch-$30, after he eventually accepts the buy out then you can start betting with him again.

This is good. Just make sure you have another prop bet ready after he accepts to show him there are no hard feelings.

This is really good, he basically has to accept unless he thinks you can't hold out or he wants to spite you.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

1) You are a retard for being mad about an all-star game bet

2) Your office dude is a retard for not making the bet more specific. You are def. not being a dick. If there was a minimum number of bets for the rest of the year he should have made that part of the deal. gg.

Re: Am I a dick?
 

You are not a dick. This is maybe the first time someone has started a thread asking if they are a dick, when they are in fact not a dick. Congratulations!
