I broke my marriage. After having pocket aces cracked to bring me down 150BB on a Sunday night, I snapped at my wife when she tried to console me with empty words. She responded with a tearful "I don't think I want to be married to you anymore." Three months later, I was in my own condo, where I sit now.

There has to be more to the story than this. Marriages don't end because of one instance of someone losing their temper (unless of course there is violence involved).

Of course there is more to the story. In a nutshell, this was the just the flash point for the disintegration of our marriage. A few days later, she acknowledged that she "had feelings for someone else." She then inferred that she had been having an affair for the prior two months, and claimed that all of the time I had spent playing online poker (1-2 hours per weekday evening; 3-4 hours per day on the weekend during bonus periods) was the final straw of the last chapter of a marriage of parallel lives. C'est la vie.
