Re: Girlfriend says I have major gambling problem and need help.
you never specified how much money you were losing at poker. you may not be addicted but she may not be able to handle the money that you so carelessly lost. if you cant play poker cause you need the money to pay the bills then clearly you dont have excessive cash at your disposal. if i had a girlfriend or a wife that was a losing poker player and lost several hundred-several thousand a month i would either give her the boot or get her to quit. i am a professional poker player and while i understand that most poker players are losing players, i see no reason why a losing player should be playing... he should simply quit or get better using other methods until he is good enough to at least be break even. i was never a losing player when i first started, because i took the time reading books and never played against tougher competition. call me a sissy but poker is about money, and thats why i play it.
sorry if i was so harsh but sometimes i feel that it may be necessary.
