RIP, super sad, so young

I remember when he first hit the sng scene in 2008 he was mass tabling high stakes sngs out of no where, everyone I talked w/ at the time was convinced it was someone multi accounting or that had previously been banned since we never saw him at lower stakes. It wasnt though, just someone with a really awesome screenname.

Absolutely this.

Really sad news. I finally had the pleasure of meeting him at the wsop 2011, had a great time hanging and always enjoyed his positive outlook. He was always so cheerful and took everything in stride.

Paresh will be missed.
Condolences to his family and friends.

His last post on pocketfives - he talks about sacrifices he's made for poker: http://www.pocketfives.com/f7/so-i-h...8/#post6265583

Quote:
hey supream and all -
I TOTALLY FEEL U MAN - feel like im going thru lots of similar feelings and stuff.....
yeah i mean i think a lot of it comes down to balance and prioritizing things
grinding a ton online can be a very lonely and introspective activity so u just gotta figure out what matters to u and makes u happy and keep those two in check
i enjoy the game and i enjoy playing and i enjoy making money, it makes the time pass by, but i also feel like ive sacrificed a lot in terms of social life, doing things out in real world, friends, etc
so its tough and can kinda haunt u/get at u - just gotta make sure to pursue other things and have strong connections and support to keep u sane and give u something to look forward to
just try to clearly keep in mind ur goals and what u wanna get out of it, etc
ive given serious thoughts to quitting or cutting down and doing something else as well but we'll see - i think a lot of that feeling can be indeed caused by non-poker related problems, personal issues, etc
i used to play HS SNG and at least i could play shorter sessions and have more free times on a day, but the decision to play MTTs can def be long hrs and grinding, so just gotta not play too much and occupy ur life with other things that r important to u long term and satisfy u inside....
GL with this, hope it helps, im trying to do much the same right now
BEING 24 IN THIS STAGE OF LIFE CAN BE WEIRD DIFFICULT TIMES, LOT HITTING U ALL AT ONCE!!

I guess it didn't work out well for him in the end He had over 2M of Pocketfives cashes, what a beast he was at the tables.

Wow, this is awful.

I never even knew Dana Gordon was pareshjain. I remember playing with pareshjain in the SNGs on Stars years ago. He must have been playing underage, as his Stars name now was Dana Gordon, right? He cleaned those SNGs up, just like he did with MTTs. Just a great player.

That last post is very disturbing.

There's always help you can get, everyone, and no situation is too dire. Remember that.
