Default BBV: Would you be insulted by this? (staking)

One of my poker buddies from Michigan State appears at the same MTT table as me the other day. He IMs me (we've already had each others sn's) and asks if he can gold-dig any money off me.

I had just won those two tournies for 11k so I gave him 5 buyins for 24+2 multis. We agreed on 60% of any final table profits, any other cashes were to be reinvested in 24+2 multis. I come from school and have this convo:


Charlie: hey can i make a deal with you?
Charlie: ill give you $1000 and we call it even???
Bakes: whaat
Charlie:
Bakes: what happened
Charlie: won a 24+2
Bakes: no way
Charlie: cmon bro
Bakes: today?
Charlie: cut me a deal
Charlie: yea
Charlie: just won it 10 min ago
Charlie: i coulda not told you but i dont want to lie to you... i kinda want a big chunk of this
Bakes: what was first
Charlie: like 3500
Charlie: cmon bro
Charlie: your up over 10gs
Bakes: it should be 2100
Bakes: it doesn't matter bro i need the cash, i staked you with this agreement
Charlie: haha got a good idea
Charlie: play you for it
Bakes: no
Bakes: dont be shady plz
Bakes: im pretty generous with my loot but part of it is making an investment
Charlie: arite man but i need this loot
Charlie: i'll send you 1560 so i have 2k
Bakes: just so u know , a lot of people would get offended if you asked for something belligerent like that
Charlie: haha
Bakes: like 1000 from what should be 2100 is almost insulting
Charlie: most people dont expect someone to make 3.5gs out of 100
Charlie: i appreciate the cut
Charlie: arite i sent it lemme know when you get it


He sends the loot.

Bakes: i hope you dont bust that cuz you'll never get a stake from me or anyone i know




cliff notes: i stake a friend, he wins a tourney, offers me 30% instead of 60%.


I am pretty pissed that he would try to lowball me and pressure me into cutting him a deal. BBV, am I overreacting?

It is pretty [censored] of him....but the bigger deal you make of it, the worse this situation will get. Just ignore him from now on and take it as a life lesson i guess.

If he sent you money in full, let it go don't do business with him again like you said, if he shorted you option #2.
Edit: Yes, you are completely right for being offended, but alot of people try [censored] like that.

Charlie should be kicked in the balls at your next face to face meeting.
