Yes, I have tried Poker with friends. But we played offline, so with real cards, and as you play less hands then, it was hard to convice a friend that she played rubbishly and just turned out to be lucky. I guess, had she played more hands, statistic would have gotten the better of her ...

I bought a poker chip set from Walmart and started teaching my son when he was around 8 years old. I downloaded and printed off a cheat sheet for the hand rankings, and with the chipset, I was able to show him how the blinds worked and explained the basics of the ante and how to bid.

As far as I know, in my family I only play poker, but I don't think it's a family game.

My wife and daughter hate poker, I tried to teach my brothers, but it didn't work out, they prefer football, so only I play poker in the family, they don't know what they're missing.:)

I understand))) But the factor and stereotype “beginners are lucky” also played. I'm sure you'll still win back with your friend)

Well, there is hope that the time of covid is running out, and the tradition to gather will be the reason to see each other again

Wow) This is a methodical approach) How are you doing, do you play regularly?) Has your son already started winning?)

It's worth a try))) But you don't have to play for money in the family, you can exchange for chips that you can then exchange for desires, kisses, hugs))

with family or friends you can play other games, I don't know in the West know a game like lotto? or tcnm a lot of easy card games, and it's impossible to explain to a person who does not understand how to play poker and that he is not in position, I don't see the point

My brother seems interested, but I haven't charged enough to impress him and motivate him to play, although I hope that with the 70 he charges today, he will be convinced.

If a partner does not share the gambling passion of his companion at all, then such a relationship is almost doomed. Almost always, your companion is not the most suitable option for the role of a teacher. It is easier to resort to self-study with the help of books and online resources. Having knowledge is one thing, but being able to pass it on to others is quite another. Poker can sometimes be difficult to reconcile with the realities of life and the game can affect many aspects of life. The player has to constantly find ways of trusting communication with loved ones in order to avoid discord. Personally, I play alone in my family.

Not bad)) Charge it with video content, for example, show videos from the main PSPC tournament - such things are inspiring)

You are absolutely correct in saying that balance is important and it is important to form an understanding among loved ones that poker is not something bad, but entertainment. Yes, for some people this is a source of income, but this is a completely different matter.

I understand, maybe show them videos of big poker tournaments at leisure to form an understanding that this is the whole world and that millions of people are playing it, maybe then loved ones will change their attitude

metro family was always very concerting and the fact that I played poker was always something very bad for them, but even so my mother is the only one who understands me, that's why I studied and to this day I was able to earn money in what I love most, which is this game or more than that, this sport
