If feels like they took the easy route and couldn't be bothered to show any backbone or real friendship to someone who made a relatively minor error of judgement or behaviour.
Funny how he steals from my pal and there's numerous statements saying we are to blame and we are grasses etc. The group are all working class lads who will have it out with you with fists in a heartbeat if you steal. The staff overheard the argument and you have to understand most staff HATE kassouf so they were quick to **** him. The lad it happened to told the staff to drop it but they went ahead with it. I told my mate to tell them to drop it, even make up some story that it was a mistake, and he rightly said he wasn't going to lie for him and I felt like a **** for even asking him to do that. He palmed some chips in a greedy albeit drunken man. We've already forgotten about it but unfortunately it's hit the internet trolls who want blood.

I have seen people doing horrible things and making super stupid decisions when they are drunk and the next day they didnt know why they really hit that guy, ****ed that woman or whatever else they were doing. They didnt think about it or thought they were in the Right.
I have seen people literally throwin money away because they just didnt care at that moment. **** happens.
He never stopped playing small tournaments anyway. Just look at his hendon mob ****.
Its actually the opposite . He rarely plays the super high tournaments and very often tries to get a place through satelites.
Explain why I'm not a real friend? Before you answer take time to think that maybe I'm no longer a REAL friend after what he did to my pal. I served 8 years in the Airborne and have some real close friends from there, the poker community is just meh. From all his fanboys commenting though there's a space as his fwend if you wanna apply? Be prepared to get ****ed on every credit card roulette scam going and told what's what

I know you often hate my opinion and sometimes apparently get quite angry about my opinion, but IMO it was not good that the players decided to not try to resolve the situation between him, them and the casino but instead were content to see him get the full force of any penalties.
When a player gives another player chips to bet with it always opens up the possibility of a misunderstanding. Either give someone chips as an absolute gift or manage your own chips.
Stop talking **** dude. You know nothing about the situation and are irrelevant. How can chips fall into someone's pocket? We live in the UK and dont wear those ****ty baggy Hawaiian shirts with the big pockets. And thinking that poster is Kassouf...he is a live pro and doesn't know 2 plus 2, which is primarily full of internet geeks, exists lol. The victim here told the staff to drop it but they went ahead with it anyway. Maybe looking for an excuse to rid of him and a golden one appeared. The guy he did it too isnt a close friend anyway and doesn't need to feel guilty.

Maybe drunkenly justifies to himself ‘ oh he’ll probably lose them anyway ‘
Gets caught out attempts to loudly justify and defend himself as lawyers do, ends up drawing more attention to himself and here we are now.
Even if he’s drunk still screams volume about his character and traits
This ^^

No lol. Kid's 21 and has zero responsibilities.
