It hasn't been a good year for Richard "nutsinho" Lyndaker so far on PokerStars. In total, he's down about $900,000 and among the biggest losers online. Lyndaker is usually a pretty calm person when it comes to big losses. Lately, however, he's been talking a bit about his bad poker sessions on twitter, and some of these tweets indicate that he's about to quit poker.
Below are 2 of Lyndaker's l[...] Read more » "November will be the last month of 'nutsinho' playing on Pokerstars"

I have always loved that name, even though he claims that it isn’t supposed to be pronounced nuts-in-ho! I have a feeling that he will simply come back under a different name. There have been times my wife is playing online against players I know well, and it is fun to give her some tips about them while they have no idea who she is! He has his whole life in front of him, hopefully he doesn’t screw it up like some of the other former poker top guns we have seen in the news this year.

i dont get this idea of " quitting after next two months" if he wants to quit, he should quit now why wait? clearly he's addicted to poker, so quitting = just a break

Hilarious post, but I think he is hedging the possibility that he will start running closer to EV . . . I totally agree he'll be back sooner or later. He is one of the American pros that jumped ship, so to speak, to continue playing on PS after Black Friday. In any case, if he is planning on "quitting" (at least on PS), but in the meantime continues to round at the stakes he usually plays, 2 months is an awfully big gamble to try and recover . . . go hard or go home! I'd love to be good enough to be a poker pro (especially cash games), f**k a 9-5 FURREAL furreal.

Quiting online poker isn’t the same as quiting poker. I can’t imagine what a $900K deficit can mean in his wallet, but this values only refer to online poker. Is he still play outside the net? And how are things going around there? Looking to oponents in the eyes can have different results from typing some tough stuff in the online chat. Its always nice to see someone admitting things aren’t going well and to recognize that everyone as a point were it should stop, instead of continue trying to recover what just don’t have any other solution. Perhaps after calming down a few months things can come better.

PS has promo session for russians for months. i mean site generates lucky winnng hands. dont amazes me that soon much players quit online. i have doubts about online sites since im playing online 7 years. i think every poker site has house script, which brings more income: rake + house players in every tournament and cashtables, so they get doubled earnings.
------------ ofc you can improve it only by hacking poker program. so therefor nobody hasnt proof yet
------------ have to ask assante to do it
