Cant win anymore - no matter what

That was over the line.

oh shut up

[breaktwister]

Well thats it - 2 weeks of [censored] [censored] on FullTilt have ruined my life. Everything was great until Party closed to Americans. Thanks very much Mr Frist.

Im gonna try grinding it out at 3/6 again (not on FullTilt) in one final stand before I probably quit. I used to make 200 a day on 3/6 which is still more than the average wage here. FullTilt is rigged against good players. Its the only explanation.

[edfurlong]

I'm glad to see you are being reasonable in the midst of this trying time. Best of luck to you.

lol @ no future for kids

Lol at fiery N.Irish temper. Move to one of the crypto sites and forget about Full Tilt.

P.S. Chill out.

HEY OP

WORLD POKER EXCHANGE

FEED YOUR KIDDIES WITH RAKEBACK.

You've had a lot of replies- mostly sarcastic / unconstructive.

But I'm not sure what you wanted to hear. Nothing I suspect- you just wanted to vent.

But you've got a family, 3 kids. I would want to be capable of earning £60K (UKP) on average to risk playing cards to support my family.

I earn £40K/year for full time job on mainland UK. I've got partner and 1 child. And I wouldn't dream of giving up that secure income unless I could be sure (as possible) that I could earn that + 50% min, by playing cards.

And now you're in a tilt-induced vortex. Please get out now before the black hole sucks up your BR, sanity and kid's future.

Hope you find this constructive.

Thanks Ian - the thought of going looking for a job is depressing but not as depressing as constantly losing massive pots on pathetic river beats.

I will miss my kids the most if I get a proper job. At the minute Im able to take/collect them from school (my partner doesnt drive) and generally be around the house to help with everyday things. Poker will have to go if I get a job and I think Ill need counselling/GA or something else to let it go. After playing full-time it is hard to see life without poker.

Im taking what is left of my roll out of FullTilt and will try somewhere else - maybe Stars. I had $10K roll (plus £3K for 6 months living in backup) when I started full-time in Jan grinding 3/6 so Im back where I was then basically.

Hopefully I can build it back up again. If I go below $6K roll then its proper job time.

I am a winning player and my results for this year show it. I have had 1 losing month in last 4 years and no losing months so far this year until this month (there is time to pull it back this month but I doubt it).

Quit now, you have no shot. And I mean that in a positive way. You will never be a good player unless you understand variance. V A R I A N C E. 1 month? Really, quit now.
