Playing crdit card roullete with 9 friends. The bill comes to £665 without a tip. One of the guys reallllllly wants to buy out of CCR. What is a reasonable price to let him off with?

£75.
Don't see why people should be forced to gamble if they don't want to, especially if you are all friends

Fk that I would never do it for that amount. I'd pay my fair share and be done with it, you can't force people to gamble for those sums.

I flip for pretty much anything but I would never ever make anyone feel they had to.
If he's a friend, let him buy out for the amount he had / an even split.
You realise that he probably won't wanna come next time if you make him flip?
If you force him to flip through peer pressure and he loses, he'll feel like shit and you probably will too.

Just work out what his meal cost and let him pay that on his own plus whatever he feels is an appropriate tip.
Under no circumstances make him feel bad for not flipping.
He's not being a nit he just doesn't fancy risking £665 to win £70ish.

the phrase "Nit tax" is pretty objectionable really.
Let him pay for his share of the bill, simple as that, and put your big waving cocks away

I've been really nice recently. It happened a while ago and I was the one saying buying out at spot is fine. But because he plays alot in casinos and is v.spewy people thought he had to pay a premium. Sorry for poasting. Don't jump to judge peeps. |

I'd probably suggest a double or nothing credit card roulette where half the group pay and the other dont.
Or a Fifty50 credit card roulette, where half dont pay and the other half pay based on how much food they've eaten.
I all seriousness though if I were the guy who didn't want to play I would simply call everyone a bunch of pricks and tell the waitress I'm paying for mine separately.

I read a book recently that made the point that flipping* would make everyone happier than each paying their share. Basically the negative feelings of paying aren't linear so if everyone pays a small amount they all take a big negative hit but if only one person pays the bill the total negativity is decreased.
*It actually used the example of taking it in turns to pay for the meal, which is what flipping is long term.
