What would you do?
I have a very high-pressure pushy sports agent, he's the used car salesman type I feel dirty even talking to him sometimes. Anthony has a heavy East Coast accent.
He has got me some good deals and I've been paid, however, every single sports book he touts to me he acts like it's the best thing since sliced bread.
He has pre-rehearsed lines and forgets that he has already used them on me.
He is always throwing in bullshit stuff like, "Oh they know you everywhere Wolf your a VIP, they don't want to burn you because they know they'll get a bad reputation, and I dont want a bad reputation." "I won't tell them how good you are, I know you're winning everywhere, we will keep that our secret" "Don't mention you got limited at BigBet, I don't want them limiting you Im going to get you 5k limits" blah blah blah.
There has been a couple of sports books he's been really pushing me to deposit. I normally do a fair amount of research before I make such decisions. Unfortunately, these are not well-known sports books like Bovada, BOL, BetUS, Jazz, etc. They are more agent/bookie-type of places that use cold calling, word of mouth, and emails and allow people to play on credit. I have only a limited amount of experience dealing with bookies and agents from back in the day when you actually met up with them in person and handed them cash or they handed you cash.
Again Anthony keeps offering me a pretty generous deal: Deposit 3k for a 6.5k cash bonus(meaning I can use it on anything they offer, including the casino, (I'm not sure what that will contribute to the rollover) with no limitations on the types of bets I make(5k limit) with only an 8x roll.
I'm still a little fuzzy on just how these multi Sportsbook agents actually work. How the hell can he negotiate such a good deal for me I'm in the black at every place he has referred me to. What is he telling these different books to get them to agree to such generous terms? Is he bullshitting them as well?
Is this just a case where he assumes that the more places he has me deposit I eventually lose at one and he'll get his commission? Am I just going to get ripped off either way and lose my 3K?
I'm just highly skeptical about this one as the deal is just too generous and I hate getting burnt when the red flags are going off.
