I’d like to ask this question every once in a while who’s playing with a local?

Never have never will, if you don't have liquid cash for your action then you shouldn't be betting.

Why play with a local - unless you have a very solid relationship of trust with them ?

Plenty of online options out there - and you’re guaranteed to be paid and get bonuses/rewards.

For the recreational player - it’s just no longer worth it. Pro’s and those with limited options -it makes more sense to use a local - but the average consumer in the USA - no need.

Usually, that’s the case, but there’s always something degenerates that don’t wanna put money up and really don’t have the money

That was how I started betting. Was going to drive out to Wendover to make my first bet with my buddy Jeremy, I had jsut turned 21 and wanted to get down. Anyway this douche he used to sell to (Jeremy sold that cheap ass swag like nobodies business) was over and wouldn't stfu and I was like "Hey bro we gotta leave man so we can bet these games before they tip off" This douche bag customer was like "You guys want to bet? My brother is a bookie" If you knew the guy I am refering to there was NO WAY he had a bookie for a brother. I called BS, he was like "No let me see your phone I will call him" shows what kind of guy right? "let me see your phone" Anyway long story short we wnd up driving out to Stansbury Park out in BFE guy had a massive pond in his backyard and dude was a legit bookie. Had that guy never moved to Cali I would have never wagered offshore or evr signe d up for any forum.

I’m guessing you’re joking. If you’re not that’s insane

Exactly - why bet on credit. Way too easy to get credit cards these days a variety of ways.

Post up with a card - you will always get paid and Visa doesn’t send thugs to collect.

Can’t say the same for all locals. Most are reasonable people - but not all. Why take more risk when gambling.
