Some asked me if my wife wears the trouser . Cuz all she does is complain about my poker playin . If it was not for my wife I would have lost it all . All of my money my boys and my life . she is the one thing that keep me togher . And make sure I keep my gamblin in check. Some of us know about lostin all we have not just our money . Well I have lost alot of money playin cards over the years and my wife has always been their for me . Just becarefull that the cards don't take everything you love . The cards can hurt you and sometimes hurt the one's you love to .

Ya, I need gambling is bad unless you can afford to lose. So far I haven't used any of my own money on internet poker, I think that also helps that I'm not scared to lose it.

Yes, my husband hates that I gamble online.
Even after a big win like 10k he just says STOP youve finished ahead, now keep it like that. But me im a little degenerate, so my husband limits me to $50 per month I can put on poker. It works out good for me, I dont mind it. I recently got my $50 per month and its now up to $430 in 24 hours. I love my husband we can go to a casino with $500 and lose it, me I want to go to the atm and get more and he'll stop me. Taking me home, reminding me if I took out another $100 I prob would be down $600 instead of $500. So like all you other guys we need that loved one to limit us

Ya, my dad hates when I gamble. He always says I'll lose all my money and get addicted. But I just play as a hobbie. I wouldn't play if I didn't have an edge. My dad thinks buying lotto 649 tickets is a good idea, I'd like to know how much he spent total on them.

OMG, "Hi, im Zon, im 22 years old and im addicted to gambling" Thats really hard, boy ure just 22 and ur live is that much out of control because of poker? thats really sick, how can someone lose that amount of money playing poker, sry but that makes me . . . more angry that feeling with your wife. And if your wife is reading that, bring ur husband or ur kid to a good therapy pls, not to a pokerforum where he is surrounded by big winningpost and free money everywhere. omg

Hamilton, cool. Not too far. Do you ever have a poker night? I only have a poker night about once every month just with some friends. They're aren't very good players and we just play a few $3 sit and gos.
Ya, I thought the 12345 numbers are bad for 649 cause I figure there would be a lot of people picking those numbers and if he won the 40mill or whatever its at than he'd have to share it. I'm not sure if 649 is only for Ontario, you're probably right.

I don't quite know what would happen if I lost it all, but I don't know if I'll ever need to invest my own money in to online poker (thanks to bankrollmob ). So for the moment, if I lost it all, tough!
I might deposit again since I enjoy playing for fun but I doubt I'd go out of control and deposit my whole life onto online poker.

If you lose, move on to the next bankroll lol. I have a great idea, I think lots of people do it. Get a money bookers account or other ewallet and deposit back and forth to get deposit bonuses. So far I haven't deposited any of my own money.

thats not a bad idea geneyuss lol i think you actually are a "geneyuss" lol but i wonder would that work? im thinking it would.. if you deposit money from moneybookers to a site then cash it out again that way you can play with your bankroll there (works good for freeroll money) and work up your bonus? but the real thing is would they let you cash out from their site right after you deposit

They won't let you cash out right away or you'd lose the deposit bonus. Like on pokerstars, once you reach 500 points, pokerstars gives you an extra $50 so I'd withdrawal as soon as I get the $50 and start on the next pokerroom.
