tonight is my last night playing on sky poker

about 2 yrs ago i stopped working due to illness, this has resulted in me and the missus falling behind with loan repayments etc....and we are at the stage now where in the next couple of weeks we have no other option but to file for bankruptcy :(

this means that i will not be allowed to take part in any form of gambling for 1 yr, so as of tomorrow i will be ringing customer care to withdraw my BR and close my account.

i am gutted as over the past couple of months i had built up a nice BR enabling me to play in the higher stakes MTTs for the first time, but i'm afraid debts come before poker!!
anyway, the past 2 yrs have been a blast and i have grown to love this game and regard this site as one of THE best around, the community here are all top people and i will def miss playing, guess i'm gonna have to take up knitting or binge drinking for the next year!!!!

i will still be watching the odd tourney on 865 and hope to see many of you forum regs going deep and getting some nice cashes!

i will def be back in a year and look forward to seeing you all at the tables again, i imagine i will be as rusty as hell and there will be easy money to be made off me!!!!!

all the best, Ryan

    That's really bad news Waller and I wish you and your wife all the best for what must seem like an uncertain future.

    If it's any consolation at this difficult time, it happens to many. Many years ago I lost my job and it caused serious financial problems for my family. It didn't quite come to bankrupcy but it was close. My wife was a tower of strength and we slowly worked our way out of the mess we were in. Over the next 30 years I was fortunate to have 3 successful businesses, something I wouldn't have done had I not lost my job all those years ago. It will seem bleak for you both at the moment but together you will get through it and hopefully come out stronger afterwards. 

    I hope all turns out well for you both.

    I'm very sorry to hear about the circumstances you find yourselves in, my crystal ball didn't see this coming. It's harsh that this happens just when you've reached a level where you're playing poker more profitably than ever before. I wish you and your wife the very best. See you at the tables in a year.

    Hey waller I am in the same situation as you so know how you feel!

    I've been off work for a while now and I have considered bankruptcy too, as I seem to be paying out more a month than im getting.

    Comrade Waller, I wish you and your family the strength to help you pull thru this, you have many friends here, stay in regular touch!

    Good Luck!!
    Another friend liked this, thought i would share,

    Serenity Prayer

    God grant me the serenity
    to accept the things I cannot change;
    courage to change the things I can;
    and wisdom to know the difference.
