scenario:
You've been playing at a local casino recently that typically only gets a 1500 buyin game going as their biggest game most days. However, with your insanely spazzy play/behavior + blasting the board girls and floor men with tips you've been able to get a bigger game going almost every time you've shown up (getting bigger games than normal to run is incredibly valuable- for a few reasons). But you know it's all pretty fragile/smoke and mirrors...
One of the recs who will consistently start a bigger game so far isn't terrible by any stretch, but he will battle with you in a very friendly, competitive way and you do not want to F that up (you love battling and you like your side). It turns out this guy is also salt of the earth (at least relatively speaking) and last time you played with him baseball came up and you mentioned that you wanted to take your kid to a game soon. He offered to get you 2 really good tickets for free (~$300 value total if I had to guess, maybe way more if he's super baller). He told you to look at the schedule and let him know next time you play what game you are targeting...
Do you take him up on his offer? Or do you avoid the friend/favor zone and buy them on stub hub or whatever instead?
(keep in mind you play v v hard- too hard probably- against him and pretty much everyone else)
thx
