Poker has been instrumental in me turning my life around for the better, CardsChat probably even more so…
Nothing is good or bad, perceiving makes it so.
Poker can be an amazing, positive, fruitful pursuit for you, it can be the opposite, and also anywhere in the middle.
It’s important to be mindful, observant and honest with our perception of reality.
Also, it’s all relative… 😙🎶🎵
For me poker has been so helpful because it helped distract me and get me away from lifestyles which were really very bad for me…
Yes, poker can be a problem for some people (and there were times when I was putting in far too much volume for it to be healthy) but that doesn’t mean it is for everyone…
I remember asking DNegs one time how he would respond to someone who argued that he (or any avid player) was ‘addicted to poker’, his response I thought was pretty good, something along the lines of- ‘Is a pro NBA player addicted to basketball? Probably- yes. Is it bad for them? No…” 😎
Horses for courses and one man’s meat is another’s poison… 😜
