Hi.
I play poker when I have free time. For me, poker is a hobby, a way to relax and unwind, so my family understands this and always supports me.

We need to have care with tha games.

If poker is bad for your life and this to do you fight your family we need to think this is est form you live with your family....

I am playing with my son and I like, but we need to do others sports toghter.

We play poker togheter some hours on wekeend, but in week days we preferwork and study.

Yes, but I guess if I worked a regular job with decent salary, they would be more happy overall. However, 14 years of playing to support myself and sometimes other members of the household, had thought them that this job is at least consistent, unlike many other "real" ones in nowadays' bussiness climate.

My sisters and brothers don't believe I'm going to be a winner at poker one day, but I love the game and I believe in myself, and I don't care what they say👍



I started playing poker more often after I retired, I'm not a big player, I usually only play freerolls and $0.25 sit-go on Pokerstars. My family doesn't mind me playing, because the amount invested is very low and I can still earn a few bucks, so it's fine for them. Good luck to everyone at the tables.:)

Poker is my hobby, why do I need family support or approval, this is my choice, which does not affect the family in any way.

My parents did not support me. They accepted it but always wanted me to work, even when I was earning multiple money with it as if I were working.


My girlfriends could never even accept that poker was my job.
