Dozn - A foreigner will get atleast 10-30 years for selling less than 10 pills in Thay if they get caught in action. Now think what they will do incase of murder. I guess no online poker for life lol.

Gosh, what a f*cking sicko, drunk or not thats definetely not an excuse. I mean, this guy must have something wrong inside him to kill a prostitute, wether he s drunk or not, desperate or not. Tons of people have problems with their lifes, thats not why they murder people... And what he does after (cutting the body in pieces, putting it in a suitcase, and dumping it at a deserted place) is really sick. Not a big loss for society.... (Im obviously talking about him being in jail, not of the prostitute being dead)

Madness! I wish the article would've elaborated on why his wife left with their kid, maybe that would give more insight into why he flipped and murdered a prostitute. I know if I could make a fortune in poker, I'd stay in America, date the hottest women (only casually, never marry), and most importantly, CHILL DA PHUCK OUT (never an option in this stupid paper-chasing, reason-abusing, capitalist society).
Thats what you get for cracking Rons AA's! Nar pretty harsh Thailand will excecute him their sentences r really brutal,like 25 years for smuggling drugs etc

Unfortunately, yes, you gotta play the game and move through the system, but if one succeeds, unlike this guy, it's best to stay as far away from the hedonistic indulgences as possible. He probably got done banging the whore and then had some sort of existential breakdown . . . LOLSMH

When I read the headline I thought: No! F**k! What did I do last night? But it seems as I was not involved in this, and I am very grateful and happy for that.
It's vacation; I will now open another beer and avoid stabbing a prostitute.
