Message: [QUOTE="Mr_Nuisance, post: 6262122, member: 481402"] I feel as if it is not a fear of playing for real money, it is a matter of people playing outside of what they can afford and being fearful of being put in a financial situation if they lose. For most people who play, poker is a form of entertainment. I mean yes, you do try to win money, but you are paying for the thrill and the entertainment that comes with sitting at the table. Many people who play scared are most likely playing with money that they can't afford to lose, which ironically, increases your chances of losing because you will not play marginal hands that you typically should play. If you are fearful of losing your money, I recommend not playing until you are not afraid of losing that money, because it is a big part of the game. [/QUOTE]
