My wife loves to watch me play poker, but sometimes she blurs my strategy, some times shes right,``that guy is bluffing, call him´´.

She would cringe at having to bluff and wouldn't be able to take the swings. At this point, she simply asks if it was a good night. If the answer is no, I follow with a reminder that I've been playing with other people's money for some time now.​

My wife supports me in my passion for poker.
See the effort I put into improving my game studying videos or reviewing my hands, I think that's why I can still try to be professional without neglecting my other activities, of course.

sometimes when I play a good tournament or cash games at good rates, my wife looks at how I play poker and supports me morally and it is very pleasant for me that I have support from my loved one!

I taught my wife how to play as a TAG player, minus the poker math. I did teach her how to count outs and that's what she relies on. But since I've taken on a LAG persona and the massive ups and downs that come with it, I think she plays better than me now.

Hi.
I do not need help while playing poker. The most important thing for me is to be focused on making the right decisions. Concentration, always allows me to get good results.
Good luck.

That's funny you mention that! I've often considered teaching my spouse or a friend a very ABC TAG strategy to use as a control while I try different styles such as LAG to see if it's worth incorporating to my game!

Greatest example of help playing online poker was a friend's girlfriend who would bring him a vessel to piss in and empty it, so he wouldn't have to leave the computer. That's a little too much help if you ask me.

I always play by myself and don't like to someone standing behind my back or just present in the room. It interferes and distracts me.

They do

My mon is always supporting me with all my goals, she doesn't understand too much about the game but she is always there telling me that I can do everything. She is a really good person and Im so glad that she is in my life.

One of my closest friends is always supporting me too, he is always joking and telling me that Im a bad player but he truly believe in me and he wish the best for me so I guess Im really lucky and hopefully they will be in my life for a long time

I think two players working together can actually improve your game. The other person may see different things that you may not have thought of.

Sure. Why be w/someone who wouldn't? She's so cool she'll even take over if I have to leave for a while or whatever. I've had to leave and came back and she's tripled my stack. I know, lucky me.

Though I'm sure she could spot a bluff a mile off or maybe that's just me she can spot

It would be interesting to let her play a few games though I find she has a very strong sence of a person's intentions though how she would react to online p lay wpuld be really fun to watch

My wife hates everything about poker. She thinks it takes up way too much of my time. And she probably is right. But I just play free rolls so it doesn't cost me anything but time. Let's play poker.
