Default Re: Does your significant other mind poker?

I have the best defence in the world to any complaint - she wears an engagement ring that I would not have been in a position to buy without poker winnings!

"Poker paid for that ring on your finger" is a great line to have in any argument on the issue!

PS: The good lady doesn't play herself but even she has expressed surprise at how much she has picked up from seeing me play and from reluctantly watching it on TV. She could actually be a decent player but has so far never shown any interest in having a go. The only time this ever makes things slightly awkward is when we go to Vegas as I either have to make sure she's happily shopping or being spa-treated when I play or wait until she's asleep before hitting the tables!
