July HSNL **** Thread - Page 46 - High Stakes Poker Pot Limit and No Limit

From my experience almost all guys 18-25 think poker playing professionally is awesome and most girls think it's degenerate unless you own a lambo

it's funny because you can swap out poker playing professionally and strip clubs and it works.

also what clayton said, girls don't understand poker but they understand lambo

***THIS***

Of all the people I've told I'm a poker player, almost all have been pretty stoked by it. The few that haven't thought it was just gambling and had no friends that did it.

Regardless, these quasi professional poker players have enhanced the general public's image of poker over the years. Back in the day people knew nothing about it and would say "Oh, you can't be good at that. It's all luck." Now people at least understand it enough to ask questions about it, say that's cool, whatever but the point is they refrain saying ignorant statements like they would in the past. You can thank these $50k a year grinders (which by the way is more than the avg. US salary so LOL at that) for enhancing people's view of the general public.
