Default Re: A crazy holiday poker story and an ethical question (low content)

Yep ^^ what he said - if you accept a gift from someone then that does place you in some level of 'moral debt' to them - here the only way to repay that is to send him back the $1200.

After all it's Xmas - don't be a Scrooge [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The better alternative of course would have been to refuse the gift and to have cleaned him out legitimately.

Now I don't see any other ethical course, especially as the guy seems to need the $$ far more than you .
