Why I don't tell people I play poker.

And to the post a few posts above...I had a co-worker (who knows I play poker) talk to me about his "buddies who gamboool a lot". He was going on and on about how they could lose $50-100 and not even care. I casually bring up how I've lost thousands in no time. He never said another word about it.

Not to single you out, because other people have said similar things, but why do 2+2ers feel the need to be ****s like this? As annoying as these things can get, at least most of the people are trying to relate to you. There's no need to go and act like you're superior to them because you risk larger amounts of money.
