The thing is, I never asked for it back or even said one thing after the bad beat.

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 . |

Re: A crazy holiday poker story and an ethical question (low content)
I would send him the money back. I also a "good karma" nit. You are not obligated to do so, but then again, i dont think accepting it in the first place is completley kosher, we both know you wouldnt give someone back their money because you put a beat on them. I dunno, thats a weird [censored] story, but if you kept the money i dont think it's immoral.

Send it back. You should have done so right after he transferred it in the first place.

I'd send the 1200 back then win it from him (minus rake).

Re: A crazy holiday poker story and an ethical question (low content)
Keep it. The only reason to possibly give it back is if you think you can m ake a lot more from this guy in the future because of it. If any of you want to transfer me money feel free to, Ill keep it all.
