i have a question for everyone i want to see if im in the wronge. ok my best friend who is like faimly calls me up busted in the southern states when i was in phily for the super billiard expo and he asked me to pay for his flight home. so i look up the flights and its cheaper for me to fly him to philly and give him a chance to make some $$. so he agrees and i fly him to philly which cost me $120 and when he got to the hotel i gave him $80. two days later he has $3,000 and i ask him for some $$ and he gives me the $200 i put out to get him there and put him in action. he ends up building it up to $5,000 and i never see another dime! so i let that one go as just doing him a big favor cuz he helps me out time to time (never putting $5,000 in my pocket but borrows me when i need it) so anywayz almost a year later he asks me to go on the road with him and i turned down the offer. he calls and begs me to go he has no-one to go with and says i wont have to spend a dime. so i agree on goin trying to help my friend and have some fun but when out on the road i spend $500! i tell him look ive spent 500 he says dont worry when we get back i will take car of it! so we get back home a week goes by and i ask him for the $$ and he laughs in my face and says he dont owe me anything! so am i in the right for getting mad and taking him out my life?? plz help me azer's i have no friends that understand this pool world we live in

Yep, your friend is no friend. If you ever give him money again it is your fault.
 
thanks guys and chris u know him im from toledo ohio i really dont want to say names but u know him we were in hudson together for the turkey shootout
 
If the story is just as you say it is then he did you way wrong. If it were me and you flew me to a spot and then gave me a stake to get started I'd give you HALF of all the profits.

I am sure this asshole got a free room as well at the SBE through you right?

Next time he calls you when he is broke tell him you are too from lending too much money to deadbeats.
 
jb>> thank you and i said the same to him when he built it up to $5,000 i was like u really owe me like $2500 but i let friendship over ride business the funny thing about that is he lost my predator bk 1 while on the road after the sbe that year and paid me 200 for it thats what i had in it and on top of all that called me for a ride from indy after he went bust there and i left at 330am drove straight there and got him. ive learned my lesson so bye bye so called friend and he did have free room at the sbe

Whats long and "hard" on a pool hustler?

Answer: 6th grade.....
 
Hes a user/abuser and no friend. The only time he is your friend is when he is in need.
Whats that saying? A friend in need is a friend indeed.
Where would his ass be if you hadn't bailed him and brought him to Philly.
If he was half a man he would have coughed up half of that 5K.
With friends like that, you don't need enemies and eventually he will bring you down.

yeah you're in the right. just wait though. it sounds like he's one of those guys that's going to get into the 1st situation again.

i'd tell him to shoot you at least half and if he doesn't just wait. he'll ask for help again and you'll be able to say no justifiably
 
If the facts as you present them are the way things went down then your ex-friend is a jerk and if it were me he'd be out of my life.
