Hi guys

thought ‘I would let you know here first that I will be giving up poker and hence leaving the site (again). The bottom line is that I am sick of being on the receiving end of everybody else’s bad play / good luck, I have completely fallen out of love with the game, mainly because I am stuck back at micro  / low stakes and it drives me insane. I may or may not be back in the future, but right now it’s unlikely. 

Anyway, that’s why i have not been very active recently, and you should probably remove my mod status.

Very sorry to hear Turbulence!  Variance can be a real bitch, and I know how you feel! I’ve been in Makeup for close to a year. It’s brutal.

We’ll be here if you decided to return, best of luck!

Holy moly. So sorry you’ve gone Turbulence. I looked to you as a beacon of strength in the game. I have also been doing rubbish this last year or so, but mainly because I have been so skint with so many expenses (mainly due to maintatining my fATPL) that any time I make a score I am withdrawing my roll. 

Can’t give up TPE though! The day I give up TPE will be the day I also am totally through with the game.

I guess it is easier for an amateur to remain detached from results though. I’m so sorry this stab at going pro didn’t work out for you. I have also suffered setbacks in both my poker career and my regular career, and I empathize strongly when things don’t work out for people. Don’t be too disheartened…tournament poker is notoriously brutal. Have you thought of trying cash?

Hope you see this, hope you’ll be back.

I for one will miss you.
