A friend of mine invited Tom McEvoy to join his private tourney. When asked, (in front of all of us), if he was willing to give a bounty on himself he said yes, but then went on to say he only had .31 cents in his account, but no worries because he was planning on winning the tourney. When asked how he managed to enter the tourney with no money he said he was being staked by a fellow player (acehiflush31) at the tourney.
Well, to make a long story short....I took him out, he said gg, gn and left without stating he was sending me any money for the bounty. I checked my bank and still no money from him.
He either forgot about the bounty deal or figured since he didn't win the tourney, there was no deal as to the bounty? Either way, I am not going to chase him down for it, he can keep it. (Probably needs it more than I do)
--The other night, I asked a friend for advice on how to handle a losing streak, he said to continue playing and not to quit. I took his advice and I am proud to say, I finished 1st in this tourney. Hopefully this puts an end to my losing streak. *Thankyou for your good advice, mon ami*
