I just finished watching TV where they showed this year’s World Series of Poker, in which the winner of the event took home over $8 million, I believe. That’s something you can’t do everyday. I remember the first time I played poker; it was in a cousin’s house during one of our family’s annual visit to them. At the time, I have never played a hand of poker but they persevered to teach me how and even wrote on a piece of paper the possible hands I could form.
For me, poker is really a mental game since no matter what cards you get at the start, what’s important is how you play your cards. You play them right, you could go home a very happy man, because that was what happened to me several months ago. I do not play very often, not even recreationally. But during an annual team-building event at work, our boss brought his chips so we converted the tables there and made them into poker tables. I was just a spectator at first but a colleague asked me to take his place after a few games. Anyway, I guess it was just my lucky day that I took home the pot.
