Deal Breaker?

Would this be a deal breaker?
Quote:
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."
I wonder if he told her before Sergey showed up? Or they came back together to break it to her? Jeez, she was awfully indignant, considering it was probably only for a night or weekend, not permanant, like losing a horse or goat.
At least she covered the bet and didn't cause Sergey to lose face with the guys.
Considering the outcome I wonder if old Sergey was set up?


I've a feeling I'm gonna get a raft of shit over this.
