That's what I meant. Poker is a game, and because of a game a friendship must not be broken. That's why I said that if a friendship breaks, it was not a freindship
 
Imo it can cause its not about poker its about the money the game is just a tool
 
Is known around the world - in poker, has no friends.
In life you friends at the table are "enemies".
Friendship can destroy only a betrayal.
 
The choice of a poker partner should not be limited to friends and acquaintances. Often the most unfamiliar and casual partner is much more compatible and effective. The law of meanness !!!
 
I did not get into such a situation, because my friends do not play poker.
 
I do not play cash games against my friends.. tournaments are something else.

Playing with a friend often at the table in poker, there is such a thing. It when we play at the same table, constantly loses chips. When I'm not at the table, or I'm not playing, he's fine, he's in the "plus". And this situation is repeated more than once. This led to the fact that he came out of the game when I sat down at the table. Then even further , he began to avoid a General poker game with me! maybe I need to slow down a little and lose some hands? Very often when I play with him, my winnings only occur because of simple luck. Yes, it's just what the strip not luck he had with the game personally with me! A reasonable explanation for this no, his older hands lose on the river my even trash hands!
Question - for the sake of friendship sometimes we must lose in poker?

I would rather loose to my friend than a stranger.😀
 
My friend and I play at the same table, and that's no it does not affect our game. After the game, we show each other's errors. In the game of poker can not make concessions to each other, then there is no interest in the game.

Great offer! And the friend is happy, you are happy, and money for beer is in our company !! Super offer, everyone is happy !!
 
If he is a true friend then he should be happy for you if you win. He is probably superstitious and feels that he cannot win a game that you are both playing in at the same time
 
I play regularly with a buddy. Cashgame and also tournaments in the casino. We have often take out of each other ... but without arguing. We also focus on our mistakes and try to improve. If you often play against a buddy, he can read you and show you your habits, which you do not see yourself
 
If you want save your friend don't play with him, or simply talk with him how he feels after game with you.
 
for sure old gf hated poker and gf is gone😕 but new gf plays toooo🙄🙄
 
Oh yes it can ruin relationships.It starts from ruining the player.Any hyperbolic addiction is disastrous.

in any game people may have common interests and, therefore, they have something unites😀
 
Oh, i lost my friend by playing poker with him😀
Its because i had been learning him much time, but he... ****.
 
You have to be mature to face these situations, it's just a game. If he thinks he should tell you that he does not feel comfortable when he plays with you, that's it. Not necessarily because they are friends should play together.
 
I WOULDNT BE SURPRISED IF IT DOES I JUST STARE AT MY LAPTOP SCREEN N DONT TALK TO PEOPLE HAHAHAHA
