Default Re: Beat: Parent set me up with therapist about me playing poker

I am grunching but here is what i would say

poker is teaching you a lot of good things about life
you are learning serious analytical and critical thinking skills. The mental capacity required to play winning poker is grossly underestimated.

second, you are learning a little bit about zen. it takes a special type of personality to be able to deal with all of the bs poker throws our way

third, at least you arent shooting heroine in your free time.
