Hello! I play poker, I put a small limit. Even he registered his wife, and she plays with me. But my wife swears constantly over time, because I have put money there, and do not win anything. We have because of this scandal. We all know that gambling does not lead to good. How do you solve all these problems with his wife. Do you do it?

It depends how much money you loose and if this affects your relationship or not (for example you play with money intended for living or you ignore her spending too much time to play). If this is the case she is right to be angry with you.

If on the contrary you play moderately as a hobby and with money which are intended for fun i do not see a problem. In every relationship both partners should have some budget and free time to have some fun individually as long as the main expenses are already met.It should not matter for her if you play poker, drink beer with friends or buy PC games for example.

In my family there are no problems with my game of online poker, even my cat Marquise no pritenzy.

I think poker should be a bright addition to your life but it should not be life itself !!! Between family and poker, the choice is obvious - poker should not interfere with semey !!!

First prioritize the family. Take everything they tell you positively, even if you don't agree with them. The family always wants the best for you.

Yes, I can play the whole day and do not pay attention to it. It is because of this, you're right.

The society demand we fit in a behavior pattern. So, to people regarded important for us, we have to prove that we are not an unbalanced person doing all our social, affective and financial duties as they have to be done. So I judge important, when it happens, sincerely asking to ourselves for the truth about "I really am adicted?", "Why people are telling that?", "What I can do to be better about it?".

Thanks. I never thought that the forum can be helpful. I'll preznatelen, you have opened my eyes to things. Thanks.

Hello.
I do not spend money on the game. That makes no sense. If you can't build a bankroll by playing freerolls, you better listen to your wife and find another hobby.

Unfortunately, not everyone accepts poker and thinks it is a type of addiction or gambling. Hardly a person who does not play poker accepts this, my family also cannot agree to see me playing, but they also do not criticize me for playing. If it is really a case of addiction where the person loses everything then I think it is cool for the family to intervene, but if the person only plays for fun and loses only a few dollars, I don't see anything too much about it.

Hello friend, look personally I don't have a wife, but that situation makes me known. Over time I began to ask where I am playing poker, and if it is profitable to lead a life with the game. I play poker for love, because I like it and it is my passion. But my life goes the other way, I have my job and I don't live poker. But I understand you, many times the poker that gives you what you deserve, but what you need. regards

I have no such problems. I try not to use my money for the game. To do this, I play freerolls. Then I use this money for the game.

of course there were negative situations ... there are two ways out: start making money on it or stop playing

Thanks for answers. If I asked here in Russia, me laugh. And here I feel real support, THANK YOU !!!

A few years ago my parents had problems that I gamble. I always told them that these are freerolls: D

No, everything is fine with us. Rarely when my mother told me enough to play it all lose, we will live on the street. To which I smiled and played on. And then mom also smiled.

There were times when I played a lot and ended up interfering in my personal relationships, especially at the beginning when I wanted to learn and conquer everything at once. Now with more experience, I can reconcile time for work, study, family, friends and poker.

I almost play freerolls, so it’s just a waste of time. Although, they say time is money.

Win,,,,and all problems go away.

Always more than everything with my mother, we have already had about 10 years, in discussions and with my aunts as well, but I already spoke with all of them and they finally accepted me, now I need to obtain good results, in this, God willing and they arrive to everyone's benefit.

a being without study, is an incomplete being.

Family should come first. If poker is hurting the relationship, One has to find a cheaper way to dump his earned money

absolutely not. in fact they don't care, maybe they would be worried if i lose money but that's not my case.

At home my wife for not knowing the game, she has never played and because she does not understand always annoying

my family has a negative attitude towards this type of earning a living

In the past, my wife and I often had scandals over online poker, which I have been doing for a very long time. Scandals happened because of my movements around the apartment at night. During the game you will not sit at the computer for 5-6 hours without movement. You have to go to the toilet, smoke, etc. This disturbs those who are sleeping at this time.

If you win and give your family part of winning, there will be peace in the house.
Take them for free lunch on you

i can't because i find times with my family to play poker online!

Poker doesn't impact negatively on my family per se, but I feel a trap for winning players is using the game in order to feel accomplished - and kicking just about everything else down the line.

If your honest with your spouse/family and your financially responsible it reduces the stress but you also have to be balanced.

Being balanced means spending time with your family as well as your real job. They should always come first.

Financially responsible means making sure your bills are paid, food, housing, etc.. and that they trust your not going to use the mortgage or rent on poker.

There have never been any negative situations due to poker.

If you like poker and this is a salary, then you need to negotiate with your family in order to eliminate disagreements and find understanding.

That's a tough one. It's a problem especially if she thinks you love poker more than you love her. When's the best time to give your wife a kiss and a big hug?

Before someone else does..

I used to spend a lot of time playing poker because of this there were disagreements with my wife. Now I play only in the evenings when I am not working and she has become more loyal to the game.

yeh .i used to spend too much time on online poker so i got some arguments with my wife , but i solved it ,now she got use to it

Hmmm,I can`t say that everything is ok in my familly when we talk about poker.

You are absolutely right!

I think it CAN be a problem if someone focuses completely on playing and ignores everything else. I have had frustrating moments when my partner has spent the whole day playing poker and fails to take care of other things that need priority. It should be a source of entertainment but not take over your life.

none thank god i am always very responsible when i play poker when i do it with money that comes from my family

Sometimes if I play a lot my wife gets upset.

I think you should talk calmly.If you have more losses than wins, maybe you need to change your occupation?But you don't need to quarrel with a loved one because of poker.

it is very hard to talk poker to other people that dont play .

pot odds, implied odds, M value, push/shove charts etc...

"but its gambling!" sigh smh
