This is all from his upcoming book, "Speech Play: How to lose friends & irritate people", Chapter 13: How to get your friends to punch you in the face.
Step 1. Steal your friends money, Step 2. Engage in Speech Play.
If the face-punch fails, don't forget you have an additional backdoor shot at upgrading the situation to losing your sponsorship deal.

The whole thing makes me wonder though, would his friends decide to 'sort it out between themselves in the taxi later/the next day' if he had stolen a friends wallet with £100 in it, rather than a £100 chip? Or does 'sort it out' mean something else here?
Anyway it's been interesting to see Kassouf show his true colours.
Wouldn't this scum be a great politician?! One of those characters rigidly staying behind the prime ministers or presidents in front of tv cameras, bootlickingly nodding to every word they say...
It's +EV for humanity that he chose to pollute poker instead.
But even if he really did something bad there and got caught there is still a little difference to Phil Ivey stealing millions and most people still love and respect him so everything should be ok. No matter what..the people who liked Kassouf before that will still like and the people who hated him will still hate him.......No big difference.
Although your analogy sucks your assertion is correct
He got what he deserves. It’s one thing to steal from the casino but to steal from your mates is another thing. Just goes to show what the guy is actually about!
Since it happened he has only played abroad. Doubt his reception will be as warm when he ventures back into the UK scene.
I’ll certainly be giving him some $hit if I have the misfortune of being sat on his table again. My only experience of playing at the Vic was ruined by his incessant yabbering.
