No, he can't sue you. But there are about a million things he -can- do that will make you beg him to please accept the five grand plus interest with your sincerest apologies. Things generally start like most collection agencies, a polite phone inquiry, then a not-so-polite inquiry, then a discussion of how to 'work it out'. If he starts to think you aren't taking him seriously, maybe he politely 'reminds' you of your obligation by throwing a brick at your car, or arranging for someone to come to your workplace and loudly discuss your gambling problems with you in front of your co-workers, and obviously your family will be called and notified of your delinquency by those same people. From there, if you still don't pay, he can start to 'suggest' that you pay him by having someone randomly fire a shotgun into your living room window in the middle of the night. Or he can cut your brake cables for you. Or he can have someone 'accidentally' hit you with a half-ton truck in your work's parking lot. Let's just say that he wouldn't be in business if he didn't know how to 'persuade' his gamblers to cough up what they owe. And there are myriad means of persuasion available to him. Do yourself a favor. Pay the man.

The Post Office Tower used to be the designated place for snow to be observed. The bookies want a reliable and disinterested observer so they use the official observations from the London Weather Centre to determine if snow fell in London on Christmas Day. If you want to bet on snow in Birmingham, you have to specify that in the bet with the bookie and the odds will be different from London. The bookies will then designate an official observing station in Birmingham to determine if snow fell there or not. Most people bet on snow in London so the published odds are for London - and will say so.

If its illegal then he's not too bothered about the law right? So whats to stop him coming round and breaking your knees? Or did you think he'd crawl weeping into a corner?

No he can't sue but he can break your knee caps and make sure you don't tell anyone! I'd start paying that if I were you

I would suggest paying this person pronto. Then I would suggest distancing myself from gambling. These types of people do not take kindly to people that does not pay their gambling debts.Your family and freinds plus yourself are at a high risk of being hurt. Consider the worst imaginable things that one human can do to another then consider paying your gambling debt.

# 1.Dude..a lawsuit is the least of your worries.
#2 Booking ISN'T illegal. It's not paying taxes on the money earned this is and that's what gets them busted usually.

He cans sue you but if it is a guy willing to let you bet 5 k he is obviously enough of a business mn and could have someone rough you up. I doubt they will kill you but they will try to intimidate paymnent out of you.

Don't bookies take body parts for payment? You may want to research what your bookie assigns for body parts ... I mean is $1,000.00 worth a finger, or your male genital?

He might not be able to sue but he could do something else that isn't within the law...
