No one, friend. I live with older people who work, and there's no time to dedicate to this

It's all dust. Imagine telling your partner, "It's just variance!" after a six-month downswing.Understandably, this discourages family members from playing poker.

I actually got my girlfriend into poker recently and itās been interesting to watch. She picked up the basics pretty fast but what stood out is how patient she is compared to me. Way less ego, way fewer hero calls, and she just waits for good spots. It kind of made me realize how much overthinking and forcing plays can hurt.
Itās also made the game more fun honestly. Talking through hands together gives a different perspective, especially from someone who is not stuck in standard lines yet. Anyone else have experience teaching someone new?

My mother was an avid enthusiast. She played when we were just young children and when poker started to become popular on TV she would watch it. When I began playing online she became my biggest fan. My mom has been gone now for 8yrs. but I can still feel her cheering me on.

No, I'm the only one who plays poker, and I'm also the smartest, most handsome, and has the highest IQ.

Here in Brazil, poker only became known and played after the internet. I don't know anyone in the real world who knows how to play poker, I think that's why I love CardsChat so much; everyone here plays poker.

Here at home it's more or less the same thing.
They think that poker is just a game of chance, but at the same time they don't even like to play, they think it's very complicated. I think it has more to do with not understanding the game well.
