What gripes me is when someone says, “I’ll pay you next time.” They have the money, it’s just that by paying, they are admitting to defeat and they don’t want to give you that satisfaction. They defeat you, even though they have just been defeated!
Solve the problem (if there is one) by collecting all bets prior to the round. . . no pay, no play!
A good friend of mine still owes me a dozen Dunlop golf balls from a bet we made in 1972! Are Dunlop balls still being made?
