Enthusiasm


Last night we get home from dinner and my GF decides she wants to play poker online for real money. I encourage her to play poker ONLY because I enjoy it so much and wish she did also as I know she hates talking about it all the time.

So we quickly get both laptops up and running, she logs into her PokerStars account (she already had an account from previous gestures), I log into mine and I transfer her $25 from my bankroll to her account. I set her up at a full ring $.10/.$25 table. She plays for awhile, up and down, nothing major. She then moves to another table where she gets two really bad beats... both bad beats she had trips and the other person heads up had the same trips with a better kicker.

Her enthusiasm for poker quickly went south and I think she got her fill of online poker to last her another 6 months.

Oh well, my fantasy that she would enjoy poker as much as me is forever gone.

BANKROLL (-$25.00)
