I play poker for fun and wishfully for profit. So far, fun is winning out.
When I play with my friends, there is no rake, no dealer tips. Over the long term I am a winner.
However, when I play in
casinos, I am a loser
The rake, dealer tips, and promotion drops (bad beat), take their toll on my chip stacks.
My goal is to be a long-term winner in both home games, casino games, and online games. At 71 years of age, I better get a move on.
