How not to irritate your love partner when you are playing too much poker.
I would assume that everyone takes time to play poker as often as he can. A tourney can last more than 3hrs or may even take 6-8hrs. And that's too much time already spent probably more than when you chat with your wife or girlfriend. Now if they knew that you give this much hours for your poker game, then this would definitely irritate them.
My tip, plan a love getaway with your partner after winning some dollars from your poker game. Its up to you if you want to tell her that you won from your poker game or just tell her that you feel like going out with her for a lovely date!
