Sidebets can be iffy

Beware who you accept sidebets from on FullTilt. I made a sidebet tonight in a SNG, and the other guy didn't pay. The funny thing is DamonHarris actually questioned whether I'd pay if I lost....at least until Marco Liesy vouched for me....... then HE welshed on the debt. So if you happen to run across him, ask him if he's got the Tukfards $100 yet

Hopefully Karma comes around full circle on him.

Whoop, I've made several sidebets in the past. I generally have one with Marco Liesy in any tournament I play with him. Damon is the first person who has failed to pay me when he's lost.

There is no accountability online, so don't make sidebets unless you know the person or the player is a big name.

Second this all the way.

Its really a great idea to think that a total stranger is going to give you $100 when there is no repercussion for him not giving it--I'd definitely advocate that sort of thing.
