When your parents get old and find it hard to take care of themselves, tell them to rot in there own piss and ****.

A parents love is unconditional and they really should have helped you out.

he laughed at his dad when he got fired and told his mom he will never need their help

pretty sure his dad deserves to win lottery and laugh in op's face

I read the OP.

Guy moved to Europe, then all of a sudden he has a flight back and calls a friend to get the 129$ to change it up earlier.

Confused about that part. Where'd that actual ticket come from though? Confused. Is my comprehension that off here...there were a lot of words.

If the frog is really as crooked as op says, then stealing 30k anything would be a death sentance. So I must call Bull****!

Alex was gay or his wife is a freak and planned to do sexual things with you. Why would a guy let you come live with him and his wife and offer you a free ride unless they wanted something from you. This is either a fake story or the guy and wife were freaks and you were going to be their sex slave

OP u sound like a massive prick, obv bad a poker even though u convinced some idiot and more importantly urself. Even so get a job and pay this obv pyscho back. Dont play poker cos u obv cant beat french live spastics. But its unfortunate and if somebody had said to me come live abroad and play poker with my money i'd be first on that plane. Life is all about these things and learn from it.
Also tl;dr
Hit his wife
Hit him
Should have robbed the 30k anyway

Stealing the 50 bucks a session was a lame act. However leaving 30k behind is his own damn fault. I don't see any reason for paying him back that money. If he told you about it in advance and told you to take care of it now thats another thing..

Overall: Sick brag/beat

Also, show me an airline which flies from Europe to US for that price and I'll show you Elton John's girlfriend.
