now this a tuff issue to resolve(if at all) .... is this a strictly a conservitive religious issue with your GF ? ... cause I don't think you will change her opinion if that is the case....I had this same problem with my mother (who is a conservitive bible belt baptist) when I was up at her house for a weekend after helping as best I can around the house all day ,that night I got on the computer my dad had use'd and downloaded a poker site and was playing in a game when she walked in saw what I was doing and went ballistic...card playing is evil and is satans temptations etc.  even the fact that I was in a freeroll and I had not put up any money to play would not change her opinion ....... needless to say I quit playing and deleted the program and do not play (or mention poker)while I am there anymore............if it because of her upbringing(ie family or social circle)a reasonable disscussion could change her mind about it or at least she might meet you halfway and since she has no problem with you drinking alcohol I have to think it can't be religious (unless she is of Irish descent...LOL) and you have a chance at a compromise and will be able to keep her and play poker too....maybe help to even have her over to watch you play a game and get her to be your cheering section...as for her trust issues with you not telling her you were playing poker or that you had won $$$ ......G'LUCK
