maybe you need to talk and try to get her to understand how important poker is to you. use as examples things she likes to do. if she still doesn’t understand you really should rethink your relationship. after all marriage and partnership

Hello all, I'm coming to get advice or maybe to everyone to tell me what I already know hahaha, Im a succesful and winning poker player, Im a programmer to so in the morning I work in my software job and in the night I go to the casino and play 6pm-11pm but my wife hates it to the point she wants to divorce, the thing is, I only play Poker 4 days per week, the remaining 3 days I take her out for dinner or to travel somewhere, also one day I work from home so its 4 days in total we get to spend time together and do things. also when I get back from playing we watch movies with some chips and beers, so I do actually spend time with her, poker is my passion and im good at it, I could live from poker if I would want too, I have winnings that gives me a king life in Mexico, but she doesn't understand that, its time to breakup maybe?

To me it seems balanced, but I'm not a part of your relationship and every relationship is a deal. It will be as long as you two allow its topics. You need to to think about what is more important to you. Both sides need donate themselves to each other or an abusive relation doesn't endure for a long time. I wish you two be happy, together or by your own.

It all depends on how pretty she is 🙂

Just joking man, I don't know enough about either poker or women to give others any advice.
 
best of luck

Not a good one to comment, i am ending a 30 year marriage. It will hurt to end it, it also hurts to put 30 years in and decide it is in your best interest to end the marriage.

Choose carefully and best of luck.
 
Well, if you spend time with her and do what you say about taking her on a trip and so on and she doesn't understand that you like poker and that is what helps support expenses, it's time to let her go.
 
Good topic. it's been a while since i didn't get on cardschat, and in the meantime i got married ... It's a little more difficult, but my wife is understanding. So I have time to play.
 
It's time to sit with her and talk the same things you said to us... if she continues to act that way, yeah you should divorce and start searching for a new partner.
 
I think you have to pay attention to the wife to take care of her every day to give her time but to play poker. Day to play poker and evening to spend time with your wife.
 
If you say you could live off poker, why not just quit your job and play poker the same number of hours you worked you job. then spend the rest with her?

Luckily my wife is very supportive of my poker. That said we have a good relationship with good communication. That is key. If the nights you play poker are uncompromising (you go no matter what else is happening) that could be a problem. Sounds like it may be you who is done trying on the marriage. If she’s pushing back and your first thought is punting her, it sounds like there might be other issues.
 
is very difficult to conciliate that. When you are already a profit player it's ok but you are not consistent enough the couple thinks that it's a lucky game and on and on.
 
wife e poker

I love my wife, she is my partner, and let me play, but if I have to choose anything that is her choice and something else I will always choose her😎
 
What are the divorces guys? What do you suggest extremes like hiring divorce lawyers and psychologists. The girl just wants a little more attention than his poker game. My dear friend, you most importantly win more often, give gifts to your wife and often entertain with romantic evenings by candlelight. Then you will have a complete idyll between you:dancing2:
 
I dont have a wife I have poker and girlfriend 😀 and it's no problem if I pay more attention than poker
 
Of course, this is not your person who does not understand and does not share your passion, if you are really a positive player, as you say, although I have no doubt that the pragramists are strong in mathematics and statistics. Moreover, you spend free time with her. Do not know it’s up to you to decide what is more important for you, if a person loves he will not doubt and make such a choice, think about it.
 
Good evening. I have a slightly different path, I work until 6 pm, and it’s very difficult to find time for the game, but I try my best, the girl is not very happy, especially if I go to minus ... but still supports her, lately she it also becomes interesting when I win) she asks to play, sometimes we play in two)) it is better not to hide, then everything will go up)
 
Man, I don't get it, you spend time at home, you try to give her a good life and she knows that you are not cheating on her with another woman.

I think in your place, I would have been divorced a long time ago.

Good luck
 
lol XD
i think you can always find compromise by having conversation
no any advise here

So once every quarter or so I ask for an update from the OP (who has 3 total posts to date) and everyone who hasnt seen this chimes in and ads their two cents, So lets do this.
 
If there is love between you, you will surely find a solution ... But in spite of everything, if together you arrived at this point and that you do not want to falter on poker ... It is bad left.
I wish you the best. 🤞

I taught my wife how to play hold'em poker and now she plays better than me.

Are you still thinking? Put aside poker and save your family! Moreover, poker is not your main income, and you can provide for your family without it. Family is always more important!

As in the old joke about alcohol and work, "if alcohol interferes with work, why do I need this work."😉 So everything is simple here.
