Poker – Why Mom doesn’t like it

Mom doesn’t like it because Mom is always smarter than you are.

So is Phil Gordon. At least when it comes to poker. Hmm…

Phil guesses that about half of the ‘name pros’ on television have a negative net worth. That 90% have serious difficulty in holding onto the money they win, and stay near broke, regardless of how much they win.

These are the pros. Not the suckers. (Well, not the average players, arguably they’re suckers) The pros, the greats, the ones who are put on television, and are living the ‘good life’…

Always listen to Mom. There’s a reason that gaming is a vice. It’s because it’s bad for you.
