somehow, i believe every single word of this story. however, im not sure you wrote it yourself, not that it really matters.

as far as mark giving neverwin 10k, it sounds like neverwin gave mark every dime he had and didnt have any money to play with. if mark denied giving neverwin 10k after neverwin made some good, neverwin couldnt win back the money he owes mark since he has no stake. also, by giving him 10k, it strengthens the relationship with neverwin and makes it a little more likely hell get paid back.
