 Tru!
Had people try it on me loads of times.
Not blowin my own trumpet, but used to see it comin a mile off. Just told em I was only taken bets up to the bell....
They soon realise if your switched on and try it with some other mug down the road.
The only time I got done was when I told my fat useless bitch cashier exactly what this complete stranger would try and sure enough he did.... Silly beeeatch!!
People can get done for it tho if u can prove it. Presonally never got the Police involved for Slow Counts.
Nowadays bookmakers network one another and let everyone in the area kno if sum1 is tryin it on.
Generally the swindlers will only swindle mugs and tend to look at it as part of the game. I had someone try to place £50 on a 2-2 draw that had already finished. HIs bet was taken (after the result).
When he came back in I handed him his £50, gave him a "nice try" kind of look and he smiled and walked out....
Don't like it when people rip-off independant Bookies tho. |
