Hi. If some friends know that I play poker at pokerstars and 888. some of them also play at pokerstars. They like it and they encourage me because I am the only one who withdraws between 50 and 60 dollars. per week. and in my country it is a lot of money.

 

[Pomf123]

my friends erroneously think i'm the best at poker but are otherwise ok with it

 

[UM3SH]

Many friends of mine knew that I am playing poker and they thinks it's a gambling and it's not a good thing. They say you will ruin your life one day.

[Andrei Korolev]

They know who doesn't like it and who abstains.My opinion is my choice...

 

[MishkaZL]

My friends know that I play poker, but each of them treats it differently. There are those who think that I'm just wasting time, others think that it's an interesting hobby. In any case, I have my own opinion and my own goal to which I go step by step.

 

[GrannySmit77]

They think I'm gambling my money away. I tell them I have better odds than buying lottery tickets.

 

[Ivan Zaruba]

My family knows that I play poker, and not everyone my friends knows about it.

 

[0546474]

Yes, all my close friends know that I play poker for money and, in principle, I have not heard any negative comments on this from anyone. I am already old enough to make decisions independently)))

Neprotif. my wife can even sit down and play. Friends in different ways, but every time I show a victory, they don't believe.

 

[woodeng]

I was thrilled to see this question as I am too embarrassed to share my online play with friends or family -- I guess I just know they would not approve! We have poker rooms where we live and they know we have frequented those poker rooms prior to the virus and they were not real receptive to the live play . . .

 

[Shay]

They think I'm good so support me.

Neprotif. my wife can even sit down and play. Friends in different ways, but every time I show a victory, they don't believe.

That is why we need some type of poker rankings in online games

 

[mardasenia]

neither my relatives nor my friends know that I play poker, at least I think so, they know little - they sleep better

 

[Bugi]

I mentioned it in passing to two of my brothers but didn't get into any details because they didn't show any interest. They don't ask and I don't offer. I talked about it to one friend. He told me flat out, "you're an idiot". Ha, ha. Another friend sees the potential but I don't bring it up at all since he has different priorities. The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner. My cats try to play with the cursor so I have an active rail.

 

[schtiuky]

not a great one

 

[soLdaTeS88]

Parents know, wife knows, friends know, work colleagues know. Everyone has a normal attitude, there is no negativity, if I was losing money, then maybe there would be a negative, but this is how they perceive everything normally

 

[jj77jwj]

They think I spend to much time playing poker but it's my hobby lot better then them playing games gaming a least I'm going to making money or losing money one or the two but I'm going to having a lot more fun playing poker

 

[chippawa1234]

People know I play but no one is really interested switch is fine it's my hobby.

 

[Nel1523]

Yes, my family knows, my friends also (I play with them). Nobody bothers that I spend hours playing poker, there is no negative because I think they know that I am not losing money. I don't know what they would think if I lost money

 

[PYO88]

I dont really talk about it since with the pandemic I kinda lost contact of many « friends » i was hanging out with in the lasts few months...but I Wouldn’t mind they know at all.

 

[frazzle1991]

few know, religious family doesn't approve , my big brother plays overseas but only for fun if his buddy takes him, my best friend is all for it!

 

[CERRATO505]

Here in Nicaragua online poker is not known when I told my family and friends that I played online poker they did not believe it was real they asked me how the money was withdrawn and things like that now that they see my results they are astonished

 

[betang]

nobody knows. They do not like it very much.

 

[Tomek416]

They know and they know that I don't lose much money, so they are okay with it, even my wife who doesn't generally like gambling very much.
