I think poker is definitely a game of skill, but I dont think I would teach children how to play.

In a healthy way it is valid. Understanding the psychology of the game helps you better balance your emotions, logical reasoning, besides increasing the capacity of the mind.

poker is a good game to improve your thinking ability. and you are learning your mind how to solve problems what you can use in your daily life for example you are thinking twice before you are doing something and you are thinking in different ways like poker:)

Poker usually takes hour to understand but a lifetime to master. Teaching them is the easy part.

Poker is a very nervous game, not everyone can play it. There are many other games for teaching children to think logically and analyze.

The benefits of gambling in land-based and online casinos for a healthy person is a scientifically proven fact, confirmed by medical research. Unfortunately, ludomans-people who depend on the gameplay, spoil these statistics, as drug addicts spoil the statistics of useful use of drugs in medicine. It is estimated that only 5% of all players tend to develop gambling addiction, and only 2% really experience it, which is associated with thinking errors and behavioral disorders. But this is a topic for a separate article. Physiological benefits of gambling Playing with a live dealer, online machines or roulette affects the molecular physiology of the Central nervous system, causing the release of so-called "stress hormones" and "hormones of happiness". Such a ****tail of adrenaline, serotonin and dopamine causes a surge of brain activity and a sense of joy. It's a kind of stressful state. Dosed stress caused by gambling, according to studies of physiologists and psychologists, trains the Central nervous system. As a result, with regular play, the body becomes more able to work and resistant to stressful situations. Regular hormonal emissions are helpful. They increase the flow of blood to the brain, which allows longer maintain high cognitive functions. Studies of brain activity in people who play gambling and do not have dependencies, have shown that they are much less than neazartnyh people who are prone to premature memory loss. As a result, numerous studies of the physiology of people who have gambling as a hobby proved that regular play (without kinks and dependence) reduces emotional fatigue and increases stress resistance.

education and poker

I believe that any intellectual game will contribute to the full development of the child and its proper, economical and adequate relation to money. Their earning, earnings and, unfortunately, losses. You just need to acquaint your beloved child with this in a fairly adult age. too early. let it first form fully physiologically and mentally. let it first basically form what they will actively use in this game - the brain.)))) approximately at the same time as sex education children-not earlier than 17-18. but this acquaintance with the game will only benefit them, I do not doubt at all. and it will be very interesting and fascinating for them:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I believe that in general, poker is very useful for training logical, tactical and strategic thinking. If you are disciplined and patient, then poker will always be of benefit to you.

If you play at micros, most of the time its gamble. When you move up in stakes its more likely a think game.
Definitely this game if you try to understand statistics and so on , develop more that part of the brain responsible with math and logical thinking

Poker is both but everything depends on the way you look at the game. If you are gambler you can gamble on anything including poker. One day if i have children i will show them the game without hesitation. but will do my best to explain them the difference between the gambling and serious approach about the game.

Yeah I would teach the basics to children that show interest in it, but I don't think poker is a game for everyone.

We always see the glamour side of poker, with daniel and maybe a no-name player who made millions in a big tourney, but we never see the people living in the tunnels of Vegas, who have lost their life in sin city. If you teach them, teach them well ;)

I think poker is more about having good observational skills along with adaptability. In my opinion it is a game of the minds more than just gambling.

Aha, so I would be angry anytime they kick my :reddy: in poker :laugh:.
But seriously, I would not introduce them to the poker. If someday they will like poker, than I'll teach them.

Poker is an intellectual game that requires experience and skill of the player. I am convinced that it is better to play poker than other gambling games. If you have the necessary experience and skills, you have every chance to win money.

Poker is a gambling game for money, which in some people causes gaming addiction, I think that for children and grandchildren it is not suitable.
