    RIP Gobbomom

    Gobboboy's mom posted on 2+2 as "Gobbomom", and it was probably very embarrassing for him. It was bad enough for Gobbo being a freak and a weird dude (and also quite young), but to have your mom posting on poker forums with you... oh my!

    I had always wondered about their relationship. When I saw the mom on the TV show "The Goldbergs", who was depicted as comically overinvolved in her children's lives, I was somewhat reminded of Gobbomom.

    Anyway, she died. Gobbo just announced it, and he doesn't seem all that sad, noting that she was "mentally abusive" to him.

    Just about everyone I know who has/had a terrible mom has issues or is a life fuck up some degree.

    Many can fade a shit dad but if that maternal bond is compromised then adios good life. Obv doesn't apply if a non-bio maternal figure fills in.

    Total luck of the draw.

    RIP Peggy. I knew her just a little from back in the day. And a few years back at the WSOP Jimmy told me, after I asked, that it was entirely over between the two of them. Sometimes there are no happy endings and life just has to move on.

    I'm not involving myself.

    I'm reposting his public tweet.

    The relationship between mother and son is the strongest and most complicated of all. Unfortunately, he will suffer from their brokenness.
    Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

    Gobbo seems like a great guy. Wish him the best as even with an abusive mother there can be a lot of ambivalence and grief when they die.

    Peggy was a beast on twitter back in the day, consistently embarrassing her son.
    She publicly accused gobbo's roommate of stealing his bracelet, only to be met with denials. She then accused the roomate of abusing gobbos dog. Ultimately Peggy was wrong and the bracelet was found.

    RIP Peggy Klausner.
