You could simply get new friends that agree with everything you do and say? But, if you think this is a good idea then I'd say that you do have a bigger issue that needs to be dealt with.
So, assuming you value your friends here are some Friends v
poker tips.
- Don't be a poker bore: If your friends are not poker players they will not want to hear about it as much as you want to talk about it.
- Make time for your friends: There will always be another
poker game but your friends will eventually get fed up taking 2nd place to 'a stupid game'. If , on occasion, there is a big game you want to play instead of going out with friends then they don't have to know why.
- Make them ask you: In general, people like to hear about interesting personalities, good luck stories, controversy and the poker High Life. So, restrict your poker chat to just a little taster of these and you'll have your friends asking you more about it.
- Oh ... if your friends are poker players and they are telling you to quit then there is probably something wrong with your game so have a think about it (or perhaps you're just too good
).
