It will also keep them away from sucker bets like slots, or at least they will understand that they are just donating money for a little fun. -Risk Assessment - Everywhere in life you need to assess risk vs reward of your choices. Knowing how to estimate equity of a situation can really come in handy even when it doesn't involve money. -Emotional Control - Experience getting wrecked by bad luck at the table can really teach you how to keep your cool and look at the bigger picture.
