I'd like to see the DAYS worth of convo about this stake as well. Go ahead, post it, it is very evident you knew it was a stake. Although, I'll be fortunate if you dont proof read it and edit it first. Really a shame my comp doesnt log AIM convos.

[/ QUOTE ]

Classic. Blaming the victim through the use of language meant to lead others into questioning the integrity of OP who was clearly mislead and bamboozled. Nothing more than a vailed ad hominem. And coming from the lying hustler himself no less. There is no way you can turn this around boosted. Wake up and smell the coffee, it's crystal clear in everyone's mind that you conned OP.

[/ QUOTE ]

It can't possibly be "crystal clear" until we've seen the IMs between them other than the 10 lines we saw in OP. For all we know they fleshed things out over the course of the next couple days. Obviously with our evidence Boosted looks really bad in this but we really can't know what happened between them in other chats.

Isn't there a huge conflict of interest when you are playing on two different staking deals where the stakers are not in communication with each other? I can see it working in tournaments when one will stake certain tourneys, and the other will stake the rest. Or they can work out a deal where they split your action. However, taking two staking deals without working out details with each staker is really shady.

Mine and yoguh's staking deal is over. He has opted not to post more money for me to make up the stake, therefore, I cannot win his money back, and for some reason he thinks I'm going to just drop $30k out of my pocket.

[/ QUOTE ]

??? And where did the deal with Neutrality go?? Paying me 30k is definitely a better deal for you in terms of EV than playing 10/20 for me and your friend.

I'm going by what the stake was, and it was clear between you and I, that I would make that money back up if you continued to "keep staking me in the game" like I told you 10x in our other chats, and you said you would. You're not keeping me in the game, which is making me be unable to win your money back.

It seems like OP should post the entire contents of their conversation(s). He hasn't denied that they spent a lot of time talking... so when he only posts a couple of lines, my natural assumption is that he picked the portion that reflected best on his side of the case. Normally I'd say it's none of our [censored] business, but by posting this thread he has tarnished boosted's rep to a certain degree, so it seems at this point that the best thing to do would be to come out with all the evidence.

[/ QUOTE ]

We did talk a lot those few days, but not about staking. I'll post starting from when I lent boosted 30k until the convo drifts off. Then I'll post when he asks me for the "stake" and the convo drifts off. It really isn't much. It's just a lot of work to edit out the screen names but I'll do it.

Am I the only one to think the underlined is key? Boosted should be supplying the makeup himself, until he has enough to pay the OP back, which is why Boosted stated it's 100% risk free.

But enough of this silly debating - OP should just get a lawyer if Boosted doesn't agree to pay, and settle it in court.

??? We agreed to have someone else stake you but I would only get 50% of the profits and he would get the other 50%. This way I won't have to risk anything more but I woudldn't have the chance to make back 60k, only 30k. Why are you trying to deny this now and get all technical?!

Jeez I can't believe I read this [censored]. Two people I don't know arguing about money.

A: You owe me $30k, pay me back pls.
B: I don't have it. But lend me another $30k and I can win it back.

Alarm bells should be ringing for A, whose reply should have been:

A: You're trying to change the deal. Just give me the $30k.

It really looks like B was trying to pull a move here, and wanted to welsh on his debt.
