bracci :not fair to ask me cus i knew all his family,Not just that back in the day we did not have central air so in summer all our windows were open.And he did not hold back,you could hear him and you knew it was him.The houses were 3 foot apart.Not only that i watched Jr. and mark grow up.and i still hang with his family and i still know things,that make me not like him. But having said that others loved him. When the tax was put out nobody in ducktown had to pay. I will tell a couple stories give me a min.. b right back

Sr. was not like the guy that did fireworks and held block partys, Not him the way he gave back was he never took a dime from us ,We had a club on Mississippi called A.L.K.I. club that was our card room ,Pool room ,Bookie room ,Ect. and he knew it he was there just a couple times .He did not even ask us to kick up never.The club back door ,if you walked out the ally went right to Scarf Inc.just cross over georiga Ave,all of duck town had these allys,

Now on a different occasion Beeps from north Jersey come down he wants to move in cus we just got gambling and he wanted in.
So he remodels a pool hall right on Artic ave. between mississippi ave. and georiga ave. and makes a couple card rooms ect.so we r thinking Nick is going to hit us for $$ he did not but he hit BEEPS and he was made..

seems like the only genuine moments of happiness in scarfo sr's life were when he was clipping somebody or rising to power in LCN, other than that he sounds like he was miserable 24 hours a day. appreciate the stories serp.

Talking about card games, I heard the guys used to make money from them by raking the pot or cutting the pot. 5% I think they usually took. What I want to know is, when did they actually take the 5% from the pot? I don't know much about cards but I think during a game u have a number of rises until the players eventually see each others cards. So do they take 5% from every raise made or what?

I guess the 3 points on a $100 was $30 a week. I've always been interested with the bizz side of the mob. Do you know of any other money schemes the guys pulled. I understand if u don't want to mention names, I'm just interested in the wheeling and dealings the guys did in AC

no its 3 dollars a week. if your coming off the street nobody is going to loan you 100 dollars. too risky if you dont know them for that little amount of money.

Thanks South

I always thought the smaller loans they knocked out where very high interest rates, so to encourage the borrowers to pay the principle back quicker then having it drag out. Because they won't really make that much on the profit on $3 unless the guy is a complete mook and deadbeat lol

Yea that too. If you are loaning someone 100 bucks they are most likely a loser and a deadbeat. So you probably are going to want to charge 10 points a week, no less than 5. Honestly, i dont know of too many guys who would even loan so little money, makes no sense.

You just reminded me about a program I saw called CRIME INC. It was a while ago. Anyway on it are two wiseguys talking, they are being picked up on a New Jersey State listening device. So these two wiseguys are talking about this other member (I think they were part of the Genovese Family) who had loaned a small loan to a old Italian barber and was burying him with Vig. These two guys were saying it was wrong and that this shylock was a bum who deserved to be hit. I don't remember how much this guy loaned the barber accept that it was considered a small loan. Don't they call it "The knockdown loan"?

there are italian criminals but just because they are itlaian doesnt make them in the mafia. The willingness on here to just lump together decent guys into the mafia is kinda sick. im sure their families see the posting on here where their dad, a used car salesmen, gets called a mafia don.
