So due to the imminent arrival of a child (biological purpose in life – check) my usually limited time playing poker is getting constrained into almost disappearing completely so I can only imagine what it is going to look like once she’s with us.

With that I’m afraid I’m going to stop playing seriously for a while and thus, with great sadness, I will be cancelling my TPE account, at least for now.

I’d like to thank everyone on the site but specially Andrew (focault) who’s been great on the forums and who always has some pretty good insight as well as alwyas been around. As always, the community on this site is great, among the best that I’ve found on poker communities anywhere and I can honestly say I’ve learned a LOT on the brief ammount of time that I’ve been around, both from the videos and the forums.

With that said, thanks everyone, good luck and farewell (for now).

See you at the tables (or not, probably more like in the babies changing room)…

Cheers

Hey! You don’t need to stop playing…I have 3 kids…and I am still considered a well known face in my games.

(Admittedly I never see them or do anything with them, and they subsist in the basement devoid of food because I am so crap at poker I’m always broke, and they barely recognise me as their father as the last time I saw them was 3 years ago at Christmas after I went on a heater and was able to buy presents that year)…

That was obviously in jest BTW.

It can be done man!

I even have time to post at TPE and study!

Gl…see you soon!

children are certainly a blessing and our future. Spend as much time with them when they are young as when they hit the teens they are no longer ours but come into their own. You have many years of joy in front of you and some heart break to. I wish you and your wife all the best, particularly a healthy happy baby!

Also, I heard in a podcast recently that Mathematics of Poker is excellent for bedtime stories
