World Poker Forums

I hate how no matter what I say or do, my parents will always view poker as some degenerate game, I know nothing will change their mind. But I know I was meant for poker, I'm a winning player, and I'm making large cash $$$. But if my mother found out that I was a poker player, and yes I'm 18 and living with my parents for now, I would be viewed as a degenerate, and probably thrown out of my house.

It bugs me that I can't just tell them I play poker, It's like being in the closet, why can't people understand that poker is a game of skill.

Not like I'm playing blackjack.
