My girlfriend gets upset sometimes if she feels like I'm paying too much attention to poker and not enough attention to her. But she also likes the fact that it affords us much more luxurious and romantic things than my job could otherwise provide, so she gets over it. I think it would be a lot different if I was a serious B&M player though, simply due to the huge increase in time committment for similar profits.

Hey Kenny. No, I am not really a winner. I have just been extremely lucky over the past 120,000 hands or so. Or maybe I just don't get your joke, considering we've never sat at the same table.

We have a better system. She doesn't ask and I tell her only if I'm winning. Keeps everyone happy.

Default Thanks ladies and gentlemen

Thanks a lot for your responses and sharing your opinions/experiences with me. I guess I just have to get known to a girl, who's playing poker herself! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

For the guy, who thinks the games here in Europe are unbeatable. Have you ever played in Europe then? I play in Switzerland, and the games are very soft. Smallest stakes are 20/40$ and people (most of them) are playing like at the 1/2$ tables in Vegas. If anyone ever gets here for a visit, contact me and I take you to the games!

There's nothing better than picking up a hot cocktail waitress though.

girls are bad at poker

its a generalisation but its true - i'll go a step further and say girls will always be worse than boys at poker - its true at all games of skill

i'm not sure which gender is looking better for this in-depth analysis though

2 years of on-line poker have cost me a $12,000 diamond and repeated nagging

This drives me insane!

Anyhow, poker has had the opposite affect with women for me. Since i'm only 18 no girls are really looking for anything long term, so long term job plans don't come up. Excess cash and a good story seems to work and poker is good for that.
