[What Does Your Family And Friends Think?]

I am glad someone has brought this topic up, because at the moment its become a big problem in my life. Living with my parents, i am seen as degenerate, who needs to get a joba nd stop playing poker. I am a gambler they would say.It gets quite depressing when they say this, yet they have no idea how much time and effort, skill and luck goes into the game, and its truly a game of skill and not a form of gambling that simply involves pressing a button and hoping you get free spins on a pokie machine, THATS GAMBLING!Any way the point of this is to ask people how can i deal with this situation and let them know that this is what i love doing, i wouldnt change it for the world and make them understand my passion.Thanks for your thoughts.
