About a month ago I was playing ping pong with a certain nubblite and we decided to put a little wager on it. The first game started out at $5 and I won. Then he wanted to play double or nothing, and I won...so I am up $10....then double or nothing.....I am up $20.....Then $30 and I win so I am up $50....then double or nothing and I am up $100....so at that point I am happy to leave the game up $100, but this certain person insisted on playing more. So I said just for $50 and I won....so I am up to $150....double or nothing again, and of course I win....so I am at $300. I say I am done because I know if he owes any more there is no way he will be paying.
So we go back to my dorm room and he says, “another game for $150,” I think about it and say “You don’t even have that much money.” So he goes to the bathroom, pretends to check is checking account balance and says “Yeah, I have $350" so I decide to play. Yes he lost, and now he owes me $650. I figure that is good enough, no more betting because I could really use this money. We go back to the dorm room, and he is basically in tears, he says “You have to play me again, I can’t pay all this.” So I am kind of pissed off that he would even say that, but I say “I will play for $150 and that is it, if you win, we will keep playing.” You guessed it, he lost, and I called it quits. He tells me he doesn’t even have $300. I asked him about the $300 he has in his checking account, he said “I lied so you would keep playing.”
Now the problem: It has been at least a month and I have not seen my $800. I haven’t even seen a dime. Sure he has payed for a drink here and there, but he still owes me at least $750. So I come to you guys and ask, what should I do to this jew? I thought about making him only pay $100, but now that I think about it, he said he had $300 to pay me, so I think I should get payed at least $300 because that is just bull shit to lie about how much money you have so you can keep betting. Any suggestions?
