So, I was on Bet365 with a friend, and I had €5 in my balance. We decided to play roulette, and I let him place the bets using my account. He ended up turning my €5 into €75.

After that, he started saying that I owed him €70. I was pretty shocked because it was my money and my account. We never had any agreement that he would get the winnings—he was just the one placing the bets.

To keep the peace, I ended up giving him €45, which I thought was more than fair. But instead of being grateful, he still called me “sneaky” for not giving him the full €70.

I asked another mutual friend for their opinion, expecting them to agree with me, but instead, they said I was being a rat and that I actually did owe him more. That really threw me off, because to me, it seems obvious that I was already being generous.

So now I’m second-guessing myself. AITA?

Edit: Forgot to mention I was willing to split half the earnings but when he got greedy I got pissed and wanted to keep all for myself.
