    poker harms marriage

    A Murmansk gambler lost his wife in a poker game when he ran out of cash and laid his other half on the table, Ananova reports.

    Unfortunately for Andrei Karpov, when winning opponent Sergey Brodov arrived to claim his prize, his wife Tatiana was "so angry" she opted for a divorce.

    She thundered: "It was humiliating and I was utterly ashamed. But as soon as my ex-husband did that I knew I had to leave him."

    In a heartwarming twist which disproves once-and-for-all the old "lucky at cards, unlucky at love" proverb, Tatiana started a relationship with Brodov and subsequently married him.

    She enthused: "Sergey was a very handsome, charming man and I am very happy with him, even if he did 'win' me in a poker game.

    This could be a lesson for AtW. Do not waste time in useless SKAs but instead learn poker skills.
    I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.

        So the final outcome was that she allowed her husband to honour his gambling debt
