GH, sounds like TexanGambler

He's left a trail of drama in almost every forum.

He bets almost every MLS soccer match in 3 different ways and is like 123-189-12 for his record...

His thread in the horse forum is entertaining if nothing else.

If I am wrong, I apologiize up front to a guy I've never had interaction with, but has tons of drama

One should never loan out any money to a person via a degen site like Covers.

I think the money is lost .. Anyway i shall be following this thread closely to see who the culprit is.

Don't get his family involved. Part of this is your fault as well GH for getting yourself in this situation. This is between you and him, not you and his family. No need to drag them into it.

Same with calling cops.
Am telling you,if he does either thing, you will be sorry.

Let it go.
Sometimes people need to lose their money before they actually realize loaning money is usually a very bad thing to do. Sometimes it destroys families and friendships.

Like i said i wish you luck, but i would just forgot about this one and move on with your life.

Everything in this post is correct. If he even mentions bookie you're going to get investigated and now you'll have real problems even if your're telling the truth. Let it go and learn from it. Not worth the time, aggrevation or energy spent worrying about.

a lot you can do without having to get violent (although it sounds like he deserved this route).

Call his family members, call his job, call other people he may do business with, pass out pamphlets around his neighborhood - ruin the motherfuckers life one step at a time. Its 2011 - informations everywhere. Good luck with it GH
