It shouldn't be for sure.

Very sad story.

You cant let poker take over ur life completlely, you got to still have other intresets and hobbies, this is a very toxic thing and a lot of people do suffer from it. Only the fortunate ones get out alive from this trance of POKER POKER POKER. have any of u ever experienced where all u could talk about with ur friends is poker poker poker? Sometimes you stop seeing ur regular friends just cause u cant relate to them

Its really unfortunate what it ended up coming to with matt, thats why perusing other intrerest on the side is always a KEY.

yea online poker will be back one day

Faith in your Father the creator 1st and above all and then everything else.

never heard of him, but thats sad.
I remember a story of a seventy years old, filthy rich wall street investor who did the same after financial crisis occurred.
He lost 300 million $. He had 70 million left. And he took his life.... at +70 years old. Can you imagine ?
The downfall is to hard on some people.

thats sad, but crazy gonna blame poker for suicide!! HMMMMMM
