Message: [QUOTE="brutus, post: 953566, member: 12299"] when i first started playing online i got hooked big time, my time was consumed with poker. i was playing it all day everyday. when i had to come home from a friendly little home game and [URL="https://www.cardschat.com/forum/poker-rooms-10/bet-farm-lost-71707/"]lost the rent money on a bad beat[/URL], it was the wake up call i needed to give it up and concentrate on my family more. i was laid off and my wife was the only one working, we live in a small town where jobs are scarce and the ones that are here i couldnt get hired. i was trying to make up for not being able to work and help on the bills at the poker table. im going to put myself out here a bit but my wife would get her check directed deposited and one time i wiped out half her check by the time she got off work. i hope it dont seem like im hijacking and turning it around onto me, but i was there, i needed help, i thought i knew what i was doing and one good tournament or session at a table would make it all better. i thought i was too good to keep on losing and it would all turn around. dont waste another day, get some help now and start enjoying life, its too short. i did get some help and didnt think about poker until i could have my life in order. its one of the reasons i wasnt around here for awhile. i had to cut everything about poker out of my life. im sorry for rambling, reading your post just sounded so much like the situation i was in. if you have transportation issues or dont have one local, there is help that you can get online. google "free gamblers anonymous" or something close to it and maybe you can find something you are comfortable with. i hope you can find the help you need.
