Re: So I\'m getting screwed by a bookie. Ideas?

If none of this works, and you are not willing to hire thugs to go get your money, you chalk it up as a loss and tell everyone you can not to deal with the guy.

At that point, why not tip off the FBI? The guy took out of state bets, and also sent/received money across state lines. He committed federal crimes which fall under the jurisdiction of the FBI. If he ever used the US Postal Service, they should be contacted too (that may sound funny, but their law enforcement arm is no joke).
I'm not sure if it is possible to be an independent bookie in Syracuse, or if he is partnered up/paying "taxes" to organzied crime in Buffalo or NYC. If he does have dealings with organized crime, he would be even more [censored].
IMO, the threat of you ruining his life/business is the only chance you have of getting paid.
