I was hoping they wouldn't notice, but today they told me I'd be banned from the property until I paid back the extra. Oh well, guess they caught it!" and then paid back the money, I don't think many people would have said much about it. I know I certainly wouldn't have.

It’s the internet, pearl clutching is inevitable especially with the group of mouth breathers that frequent this thread

Maybe in your circle of friends and acquaintances, but not mine. I spent 25 years in the Federal Judiciary and I can guarantee you that 90 out of 100 would have returned the money upon discovering the error without the casino even having to ask for it back in the first place. And the other 10 are the type of people I helped to prosecute for their ethically suspect standards in the workplace.

Anyone who receives money in error - from any person or entity - and doesn't return it immediately (or as soon as they become aware of the error), is a morally bankrupt scumbag.

Meant to say pretty much “this”. Agree with what you said, yours was just one of the first comments. And I didn’t want to quote the troll.
And I’m not accusing Borski of anything. Haven’t watched the vlog yet.

Re: Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs
Can this please be the end of the needless debate over the Boski/WSOP double pay out?

Re: Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs
Pretty hilarious people's standard of what being a scumbag is. I've gotten paid on a $20 bet on a pit game before, and I didn't say anything cause the dealer ****ed up. That means you know my whole life and I'm a scumbag....ok. For the record I'll always keep an incorrect payout from the casino. But I'm glad it makes you feel good being holyier than thou on a message board.

Re: Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs
Some people yes. But some say Boski would be a scumbag even If he told people out right that he tried to free roll the casino. And those people are the ones in talking about.
Cigarette companies are immoral companies and "scumbags". I smoked since I was 16. I just recently quit cold turnkey 6 months ago. It was hard as **** but I did it. But I'm completely ok with them being legal, we all have choices to make in life. Casinos are similar and prey on addiction. If you side with a casino over themselves ****ing up over some cash, that is in no way illegal, then you are a scumbag.

Love seeing Feather there bum hunting every week. I can confirm he has a hard rule about not playing bomb pots as he did not do so either when I was there.
Those games are gold. I've played in two so far and came away winning ~3 buy-ins each time.

Boski himself asked for the comments.
At the 3:55 mark of his latest vlog he asks "Is there a moral or ethical issue about them double paying me and me keeping the almost $5,000 extra...?" And then at the 5:00 mark he says "let me know in the chat."
This thread is devoted to discussing vloggers and their vlogs and that is what we're doing. If you don't like it, you can either wait until this particular discussion has run its course, or you can try to steer the discussion back to Trooper and his junk-food eating and coffee-drinking habits if you find that more enthralling.

Something off about this post.
Lets just sweep morally grey areas under the carpet, and move on.
Surely we can discuss this? Or is it solved

This. DC, you’re an eloquent individual so we understood you the first and second and third and fourth and fifth times.
You can go ahead and STFU about it now. Your position is well stated, firm and unwavering.
I know you’re not in sales but in sales there is something called “talking past the sale” and you did it on the second go round.
Let’s all move forward now, thanks everyone.

You have nothing better to do? Take it to another thread and create a poll so you can entertain yourself

Re: Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs
You holier than thou morality guys are dense. Yes you can express your opinion, but broken record posts the mods have already addressed a couple of pages ago. Go preach at church if you want to preach the same thing over and over. Or keep preaching here so you get banned and do us the favor.

You don't got no goods so stay clear. Don't **** with the Trooper if you bring it like a pansy. I'm generally not going to accept pansy posts in this thread. If you want to post something real then man up and stop with the rhetorical guay (not that there's anything wrong with that) questions.
I love you like a play cousin synth, but you and others gotta only add Trooper **** that's meaningful or I might have to send it right up ypur areshole IYKWIM.
R*R for Trooper97.
And as for you new douchebag accounts, it's instant deletion so don't
waste your time.
