the game is not the vice. The vice is in betting more money than you can afford to lose. I hope we are all teaching this to our kids by example. 
Spending time playing (poker baseball swimming hiking) with your kids is where we can teach our values and ready them for adulthood with lessons learned through activity. No child of mine would play poker on line till he was 18 years of age. I would allow him to see what i'm doing when online and explain what the buttons are and what they do (not the chat box be sure and turn that off or block with post it note when kids are present) and i would play with him live when ever he wanted to, 
I feel it's a great math game and children can learn money values, consequence and risk. It would be a good teaching tool to show what gambling is,the UPS and the DOWNS, from you instead of learning it from a stranger. 
They are watching you and learning as they watch you doing everything as well as online poker. Talk with them about poker, show them what you are doing, make sure they understand what it is and then explain why it's only for 18 years and older to play with money.
