Default Re: Has your poker success ever caused a friend to ask for $$$?

My friend was down to 100 dollars on him (college student) and wanted 500 for a XBox 360. I was talking about a winning session and he wanted me to let him borrow money. I told him no. I told him I would play him in 3 games of NCAA '06. 100 dollar bet in game 1. If he won, we'd play a 2nd game for 200 dollars. If he won again, a 3rd game for 100 dollars. He initially accepted then backed down. Little girl......

Sorry this is of no help to you, but I will say lending money to friends is one of the most uneasy situation you can be in. I don't think poker has anything to do with it. You have to weight the importance of the money, the affet it will have legally, the chance it will come back if you pay it, the chance of it hurting your friendship either way.
