Here in Bulgaria most people do not know about poker and consider it as pure gambling. If somebody asks me if i play poker i will tell them the truth - i play at micro stakes for fun and i like this game. If they are interested to learn more i try to explain them the main differences between poker and pure gambling casino games:

1. Playing poker you play against other players and not against casino. Casino always takes its rake so it does not care who wins and who looses.
2. Game outcome do not depend only on pure chance but also on skills of the players which in long run makes some players winners and other players loosers.

Conclusion from those two differences shows that in poker you can win in a long run if you are better player while in other casino games you can't as they are made in such way that the casino will always have edge in a long run. I tell them that i never play anything except poker in casino which is true.

Some people understand this and their view of poker changes. I personally only care about the opinion of my family, friends and colleagues at work. What other people or the society in general thinks does not matter too much for me.
