Default Re: Espn right now

I saw this special too. Cliff notes for those who are unaware of story: Rich kid from Taiwan(? not 100% sure of country), comes over here to attend college in Washington.....gets hooked on gambling, etc. Meets up with a fellow sports bettor at a casino, who helps this kid set up an online account with a company in carribean(kids kind of a thug, totes a gun). Kid loses a ton (like 75k) from a joint account he shares w/ parents, they notice, and plan to fly over to US to get him and take him home. Kid knows they're coming, makes one last bet with his partner to try and bounce back b4 parents arrive, wins bet(like 17k), then finds out partner never placed the bet. Partner knows he'll be gone soon, and tells him to [censored] off. Kid gets gun, storms house, and kills his former partner, and two innocent friends who happenned to be in house. While in jail, kid hangs himself.

Personally, if someone did that to me, I'd be tempted to light him with my gun too. Am I the only one who is fixated on how slimy this guy was to take this bet, then not pay this kid, especially considering how bad he'd run? Am I the only one who feels this kid got what he deserved, especially since the Asian kid had no legal recourse?
