And when it is me and some good friends, it is about the entertainment and spending time together. Most of the time we just get to talking and don't even get through that many hands.

I wouldn't make playing poker a career. Not because it's "immoral" or whatever, but just because it doesn't seem like something you would look back on and feel real good about, like you gave a lot to the world. I see it the same as investing in stocks. You're not really creating any value, you're just along for the ride.

Haha well, every time I warn people that in the end they will lose money to me they never believe me, infact it usually results in them challenging me to a HU match.
But your right poker doesn't give any real value, I hope my blog does provide some value for people and hopefully some entertainment...

If you ever get curious what goes on in the minds of decent poker players, just read my blog and I might give you an idea.

Drop me a line when you get your blog up--I'll be happy to link to it and help promote it ; )
Awesome, thanks a lot in advance. I really appreciate it, this is my first attempt at blogging and I'm a bit suprised of the kind reactions I get from people. A lot of people I talk to want to help me out or are interested in what I've got to tell.
