thanks, as for my family..
my parents are actually pretty cool with me playing poker - my mom seems a little less thrilled than my dad about it, but they have pretty much grown to accept it (at first it was difficult for them but it has gotten easier over time I believe).
my grandparents however, have no idea...and I'm really unsure of what to tell them because I know they won't be able to understand at all. my grandfather is really old school and wouldn't appreciate me 'gambling' nor would he believe that winnings in poker are sustainable. so I guess that's the next biggest challenge in real life for me because sooner or later they are going to be curious about what I do with my time.
if anyone has some sort of suggestions on how I can approach old people and tell them what I do I'd really appreciate any help on this, maybe even starting a thread about how to explain poker to family members would be a good idea.
