How does your family view poker?

[ccocco]

as I live alone, I have to give explanations. hehe .. but my family gets mad when I call and no answer because they know I'm playing poker.

 

[gago980]

My family accepted that what I'm playing poker. I'm trying to convince my dad to play, I think it would be a lot better than me, but without successfully for now

 

[Steves22]

The less they know the better...

 

[12551255]

They think it keeps my old mind sharp. Wait, what was I saying?

 

[Shells]

I've been pretty lucky, I think, given no one in my household plays online poker or cards of any kind. Occasionally, my husband may say something like 'you winning, yet?'..lol..He has tried to get involved, but does not really like games of any kind, which I thoroughly enjoy. So, I may sit in the same room as him, play a little poker (or other games) while watching tv.

I found out that when i talked about it no one really seemed to care so now i just play and dont even discuss unless someone brings it up to me

Thought I would come back and post one more time, because I have to change some of my first one. I grew up in a card playing family. Used to love those Friday and Sat. night penny poker games. But any other time the adults played all kinds of games while us kids got kicked out the house. So I guess what I first said was meaning my ex and kids

I live alone currently but my family thinks its stupid, really unless there were good results for like a year steady and i was paying bills and saving , then maybe they would be omk with it but now definitly not. I kind of agree to not deposit now especially with my lack of skill lol.

[avner]

[Slavuy]

Mother approve it, as long as I don't deposit money.
Sister has started playing because of me.

 

[VGShaa]

They tell me that I won a million dollars)) But seriously, private time, I choose myself, my wife only the supported me. She knows that poker is intuition and mathematics.

I don't know why, but poker has got this stereotype of a bad game everywhere in my region. Everytime they see me playing in public on my mobile, for example my mates tell to stop playing the game, that I will lose a fortune one day.
My parents tell me that I waste my time, well I do so far, but I am learning

 

[VizziVizo]

Not very good, they dont care about it,only my brother loves playing poker.

 

[Aces2w1n]

Wife happy with it... most others around are careful

 

[Blazed101]

wifey doesn't mind when it aint affecting her plans but.... YEA U KNOW

 

[titomurcia1214]

my family sees it as a waste of time and distracting me study

 

[veronica]

Luckily I have my husband playing poker like me and we both share the same passion , we have different ways of playing is more aggressive and I think more cautious , the two enjoyed sharing moments of poker in our lives , and we also hate when you lose looks at the other and do not know who to blame .. jajja , but we understand it so much , he's my biggest critic but he gets angry if I criticize his game .

 

[MPaz_87]

My family hates poker, they don't understand why I spend my time playing it and every time I accomplish something they crushed it like it was nothing at all. It sucks.

 

[rugby0]

Wife hates it. Kids all play.

 

[Wintz]

my parents are very negative about poker, so i try to not play around them
