And the whole story:

The grandson visits his grandfather for advice:"Grandpa, what do I do now that I'm great?"
- What do you mean, baby?
- Everyone has a hobby but I don't. Dad told me to go play football and even make money with it.
- No way. “I ask, is it normal for an adult to run up and down, curling a ball? Poker is the only game worthy of a man. Your cards are against everyone and everyone against yours. Teamwork? Who ever made a fortune through teamwork? There's a way to make a fortune - take it from the guy who sits down to play poker with you. ” And it's not a hobby, it's a profession.
- Did you play poker a lot, Grandpa?
- Oh, but how much more. "One has to play every day because it's very bad that one just is and doesn't even know how lucky he is."
- Do you think poker is gambling?
- No, poker is a game of knowledge!
"But you just said I know how lucky I am here!" "You don't understand that this is not gambling?" Why do the same 5 members always play for the World Cup? Are they the most glazed in Vegas? It's a mind game ... ” - And what do I need to play poker? "You don't need anything but chips and a chair." However, one thing is better if you note at the beginning, "If you don't know after 20 minutes who the sucker is at the table, it's you!" - I understand. But what if I lose all my money? What if I don't win? "If you're too careful, your whole life will be a ****ing grinder." Dare to take risks because if you don’t take risks you can never win! - All right. But what is poker like? "Poker is very similar to sex, everyone thinks he's the best, but he has no idea what he's doing." Therefore, if you go to play always be modest. Because it is better to win modestly than to lose grandly! - What's wrong, Grandpa? Your voice is sad. - I remembered the old poker parties… - How can I cheer you up? - "- Do you know what cheers me up? - We? - 3 aces and 2 kings. The constantly bidding tourists and the juice picked from them. Chip towers that I can't see from behind. All night, high-stakes Hold'em in the Tajik, where the sand turns gold. ” - Then let's go and play one! They went to play with his grandson’s grandfather, and then the grandson closed the evening without money. - You see, that's what Grandpa was talking about! - Do you give up right at the first hurdle? "If a cash player meets an experienced player at the table, the experienced player will leave with money and the cash with experience." You were the money player. If you want to achieve anything in poker, after every such defeat you will think about what you made wrong, go and learn, then sit back at the table and get better! And you don't give up!
