I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

owned. I think my friends think I'm addicted. I asked if any of them wanted a £250 Amazon voucher because I wanted the cash for FPP bonus and they said are you really that addicted?

Haha, I got this before too. My parents knew I played poker online and didn't like it. So obviously they had discussions about it amongst themselves about how they didn't like it but never said anything to me. I didn't live at home so they had never seen me play. Then when I was in the process of moving to another town I set my house up for renters before the end of the month but I had no place to live until I moved so I had to crash with them for a couple weeks.
Then I was playing online one day and my mom comes into the room is like, "OMG you play 6 tables?? I didn't know you were that addicted!"

I get the same thing, my wife sees me multitabling, and says: wow, that's really bad, you're playing 4 tables at once, I try to explain that it improves my hourly amount won, but she's still sceptical. For some reason people see more than 1 table and think it's bad news, wtf is that about?

I quit my full-time job last March to take up Poker. My birthday is in May, and I got a birthday card from my grandfather where he called me a "lost soul."
I've been with my gf for nearly four years now. Her mother knows what I do. She fights with her probably twice a month about how I'm a bum addicted to gambling gonna loose my monies and end up in hell.
She says she's willing herself to one day tell her dad..... old school traditional religious Portugese, you know the drill.
I'll never go through an intervention with my family. The current running joke is that I'm the baller in the family. My younger brother loves poker, so he was never an issue in converting. My father was skeptical because online gambling can be very dangerous. Then one day I showed him a graph and now he promotes is. My mom is slowly coming around (a lot of help from her sister I believe). It's her that I think I want to really make proud because she worries most out of the three.

No word of a lie:
This most recent weekend, I told friends of mine about this story.
|

Girlfriend: Why are the werewolves more important than living life?!
Girlfriend: Are you on the forums doing the werewolves again?
Girlfriend: Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?
