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

[ QUOTE ]
Doing anything overtly illegal is a very bad idea. Directly threatening the guy is not a great idea. Attempting any sort of physical violence or thuggery in Dali's position is almost ludicrous.

I'm assuming his position is having a family? My understanding is that there is a decent amount of distance between Dali and the bookie. I don't really see the bookie striking back as a likely outcome. Esp since if I'm reading correctly the bookie is not actually bust he is just choosing not to pay.

I myself wouldn't hesitate but I'm also don't have any of OP's considerations. I also know that I have someone who would deal with it that I can trust and that nothing would come back on me. That being said I'm pretty sure OP has made it clear he is not interested in doing down this road so my advice is just to write it off and don't use a bookie in the future. There is no way the guy is going to pay without coercion.

How do the investors feel about the situation?
