Today, while on my first day off in 2 years, I decided to play online poker. I won over $3,000. While filling out my information to get the money the power went out. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had a really good day out just to come home right before the electricity company closed for the day, to find out my payment hadn’t gone through and they'd turned it off. FML
Today, I was in class, playing online poker and keeping up my winning record. I eventually got seated against a guy who beat me at every hand. I heard laughing behind me after I lost all my winnings. The guy behind me had just made an account, looked over my shoulder, and won all my money. FML
Today, I knew my wife and kid wouldn't be home until later, and I was excited to play video games and relax. The second I turned my computer on, the power went out. It came back on as my wife was pulling into the driveway. FML
Today, there was a power outage at my apartment. I ended up deciding that the power wasn't going to come on any time soon, and that I should go to a hotel for the night. Just after I unpacked at the hotel, my neighbor called to say the power had come back. FML
Today, I was doing an online live exam with the camera on when the power suddenly went out. FML
Today, after playing numerous games of poker against my friend, and him telling me that I'm the best poker player he's ever met, I went out and played for real money. I got totally destroyed, lost all of my money, and was laughed out of the building. FML
Today, after playing in an online casino, I won £200. Being pretty tight for cash at the moment I was pretty excited. I then tried to withdraw it to be told that I can't have a penny of it because I didn't register my card details first. FML
Today, I finished working a 70 hour work week. I'm a lineman for the electric company, and worked extended hours all week getting people's lights back on after a wind storm. When I got home, my power was out. FML
Today, I woke up to find my power was out. After taking a shower in the dark and being unable to make myself lunch, my power came on two minutes before I had to leave for school. FML
Today, the power went out to my house a second time after coming on a few days ago due to a series of severe storms that rolled through the area. The first knockout took less than 12 hours. This one? A little over three days in a heat wave. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Honestly....this is a fake FML post. There is no online poker site that holds your money and waits for you to enter information. Even if they did they wouldn't steal your money. Epic fail!

This is the most fake submission I've ever seen on FML.

This is so made up. You have to fill out your information and account information and how to put money into your account before you play. If the power went out, your account on the site would still have the 3k so this is not a fml at all. It's a YAR

So, I was online banking, and the power went out while I was opening another account. The power went out so the bank closed all my accounts and I lost my life savings. Good job OP.

don't worry. The crash saved your finances. Most of those sites are only scams to try to get you to give up your personal banking information

Wow reading the responses to this FML makes me realize how stupid some of you people really are... Stop commenting on things you know nothing about... it's not like his money suddenly left his account just because his computer turned off... if this is true his $ would still be sitting there with no problems at all... Also to all the fools who say you can't win real $ without giving your information, you are straight up INCORRECT... It is called a freeroll... people with 0.00$ can enter and win real cash prizes... you only have to give information if you want to deposit money from your bank account... ...idiots

You still can't play without registering genius, in which case you can still log in and have the money in your account. Also, what freeroll out there is giving out 3 G's? When did you start playing poker? Yesterday?
