Do you get support

[Napkins420]

Wow - A year long winning streak in poker?!?! You must be one amazing poker player. And paying all the bills by playing poker? That is beyond my wildest dreams.


Now, about your girlfriend... Does she not understand that poker is like your job and is paying for everything? Is she morally opposed to poker?


You have a decision to make - girlfriend or poker? Good luck with that.

Haha I spoke too soon, I have been on a 3 day losing streak playing live no limit.

The river has been crushing me

And I am not an amazing poker player, it's just that live games are stock full of HORRIBLE players

As long as poker does not become an addiction it is okay to play and your family knows it and they can support you win big

Ouch, a three day losing streak over the course of a year is not to shabby. What casino do you play at? The players must be terrible. Hope you get back on your winning streak again.

I do not get support for poker. At first, everyone thought I was losing my money to poker. But when it turned out not how they imagined my game, they stopped treating me like a gambler. I try not to wet my personal money in poker.

My wife knows, and she gets mad every time. I only hope she gets used to it!

I don't receive any support from my parents. Actually, I try to play poker alone in the room, because it's too much stressful when they see me playing.

How long have you been married? If she gets mad "every time", how often do you play?
What is it about you playing poker that makes her mad? Is she jealous? Are you losing the rent money, or the grocery money?


My wife plays slots when we go to casinos while I play poker. Guess who wins more often? Guess who loses the most?


No, my wife does not get mad. She also plays poker in friendly home games.

My parents forbid me to play poker on the computer. Older sister is also on their side. I play on the tablet. They don't see it. They have tortured me with their questions about my education.

My parents weren't ok with it when I started out but once I had my first 5 figure year at low stakes MTT's they no longer questioned me much.

My family know I play poker, no secret of this. The only thing that it takes a lot of time.
