Tough luck dude. Especially about missing the WSOP. You'll be back into the bigger games in no time. Good luck to you.

commiserations bro.

it wasn't taxes, but my wife rebuked me for all my pokering (i didn't even play as much as most guys) so i cashed out and now i SnG occasionally on Stars and so goes my micros career.

here's to hoping you run hot & long. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

tough break. I would try to make some sort of "poker profit share" deal with your wife. when she starts getting some new shoes/jewelry every month, she'll like poker better.

your roll obviously won't go up as fast this way as before, but it will at least go up [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Although my wife was never against my poker playing becasue I never used house money to fund it (I only used money from my personal account) - I did recently make a deal with her. 1/6 of all profits from poker go to the house, with payouts every 2 weeks. She liked that, and it gets her involved in the game & my learning.

Don't forget to start paying those taxes early next year so that you don't take another hit.

Gak! Do you have a cat? My wife bitched about my playing until I saved our cat with my BR last month (3K). Since then the car has broken down and she needs dental surgery. Suddenly she has stopped bitching that I play too much and instead gets me a beer every once in a while. Maybe if i'm lucky one of our kids will get really sick and she'll start blowing me while I play! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Just for the record, if you aren't a 24/14 player at .5/1 I'll be seriously disappointed. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
