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

LOL I was in this same situation a few years back. Basically you have to find a way to convince them that you play for money and it's a skill game. This was easy for me cuz I was playing $2/$4 NL and $3/$6 NL and was up around $12-$15k and I was only 18 or so. Your situation will be a little worse, since you are a uNL player but...

I would just try to convince them that you have only invested x Dollars and are playing penny games plus you win and whatnot, idk I thought this was funny cuz my 'rents did the same thing.

Also, tell them that you are in control and you can quit when you want to and only play x hours etc...
