Hace unos años, mi amigo hizo una fiesta y por supuesto me invitó. Pero ese día había unos torneos muy chulos que no quería perderme, y por otro lado, me di cuenta de que si le decía a mi amigo que iba a jugar al póquer, no lo entendería y se sentiría ofendido por mí, así que le dije que estaba enfermo y me sentía muy mal, para no ir a su fiesta. Realmente me arrepiento de haber hecho eso, porque debería haberle dicho la verdad de inmediato, pero se lo dije solo cuando habían pasado seis meses o así, me dijo que todo estaba bien y que no me preocupara por eso, que la próxima vez me dijera la verdad y no una mentira, así me lo dijo. Ni siquiera te puedes imaginar la vergüenza que sentí en ese momento y todavía siento cuando pienso en esta estúpida situación.
It's interesting to read the different stories. The important thing is that you accepted your mistake and corrected it for the future.

Hello queen. How interesting that you are Canadian to play poker haha. Could you have been an Arab? Or maybe Swedish? Haha, just kidding.
lol No but close :p My Grandpa's dad was playing poker and won a farm in Saskatchewan one night then moved the family North from Seattle, USA <3

I never needed to lie to play, many don't approve of the game but I don't need anyone's permission to play

Yes, unfortunately I did it quite often. My girlfriend gets angry when I play longer than one hour, she thinks poker is a waste of time that I could have spent with her. I don't know who is more selfish, but sometimes I have to cheat to avoid conflict.

Sí, por desgracia, lo hice con bastante frecuencia. Mi novia se enoja cuando juego más de una hora, piensa que el póquer es una pérdida de tiempo que podría haber pasado con ella. No sé quién es más egoísta, pero a veces tengo que hacer trampas para evitar conflictos.
It's good to spend time with your partner, but it's also important to have time for ourselves and do things that we like and make us feel good.

Jajaja No, pero cerca :pag El padre de mi abuelo estaba jugando al póquer y ganó una granja en Saskatchewan una noche y luego trasladó a la familia al norte desde Seattle, EE. UU. <3
wow that sounds like a good script to make a movie playing poker where you can win a farm and then the family changes destination. like the tickets that Dicaprio won to go to the titanic xd

I personally couldn't stay in a relationship if I had to lie about playing poker- unless I was playing so much I was ignoring my marriage. Then I would need to correct my own bad behavior.

I don't remember ever lying about poker.
All of my exes knew that I played, since that was part of my living back then.
If I played live, anyone who needed to know knew.
If you have to lie, then something is no good there.

Luckily for me, I don't have such a need, as my family and friends are understanding of my hobby!!!

Personalmente, no podría seguir en una relación si tuviera que mentir sobre jugar al póquer, a menos que jugara tanto que ignorara mi matrimonio. En ese caso, tendría que corregir mi propia mala conducta.
I understand you perfectly, Debi, although sometimes it can happen that the partner you have next to you doesn't understand your love for poker.

I never needed it, because I think that when a woman goes, her partner is usually there too hahahahah. However, I have seen several men going out to talk on the phone with their wives so they wouldn't hear the noise of the chips and the game.

My gf has played for me sometimes when I'm busy. She's arguably better than me so there's no need to lie :) You go girls!

I already lied to my mother that I was going to a friend to play cards and did not tell her to go to a poker room. So she did not know that I was playing for money.

A few years ago I told my girlfriend that I had to spend the night with a friend because I was sad to end a relationship. but we actually traveled an hour to go to a casino to play a poker tournament. I knew she wouldn't let me go or ask me a lot of questions that I didn't want to hear at the time. it was a little lie and it was only once xd
I often lied to my ex-wife. Perhaps that's why she's an ex now :)
She would sometimes ask me to do something at home when she was at work, but I would lie instead, telling her I had a lot to do, but in reality I was just playing poker, and I did it quite often. If I'm a pig, I guess I'm a pig.

Yes, I lie to my wife quite often, and not just to play poker, but there are other things I have to lie about. I lie to avoid a fight, which would definitely happen if I told the truth. Lately, my wife and I rarely get along, unfortunately.

There were times when I told a lie to be able to play. This happened more than once. Sometimes I lied to my family members, sometimes to my friends, and sometimes to my boss. It's certainly not good to lie, but sometimes it's the easiest way, and if you don't want to complicate things, it's a way to achieve your goal :)

I'm sorry to read that. I hope things can improve

Hubo momentos en los que mentí para poder jugar. Esto sucedió más de una vez. A veces les mentí a mis familiares, a veces a mis amigos y a veces a mi jefe. Ciertamente no es bueno mentir, pero a veces es la manera más fácil y, si no quieres complicar las cosas, es una forma de lograr tu objetivo.:)
I understand you well. It's not the best way, but as you say, it's sometimes the easiest way to do what you want to do.
