Message: [QUOTE="rifflemao, post: 2512983, member: 98323"] A question to ponder: Can you be happy with her if you quit poker, or do you think you'll be resentful, and playing behind her back? It's not a movie of course, but it reminds me of the conflict in Rounders...except Mike and his girlfriend were college kids, and not married. Is there room for compromise? You could find a regular job, and allocate a reasonable amount of your income and time to poker as entertainment, and still keep your marriage if your wife is ok with it. Several successful players on the WSOP Circuit have jobs or run businesses, and have families. And they play poker for fun, instead of as a job. One of them lives in my hometown and took down @ $128k at Choctaw Durant last January. [/QUOTE]
