sorry to hear about your brother.
I have heard more stories like these than good ones when it comes to gambling unfortunately. I used to spend a fair amount of time in a poker room a number of years back, i scraped by making enough to keep a modest bank roll but just hearing so many bad stories about people losing everything put me off it completely, put my money into a house instead...
