While I am relatively new to poker, about 4 years now, cards and competition go way back in my family. I grew up playing euchre and gin rummy. In my family at the card table we pulled no punches and gave no quarter. You were taught the rules and you had to figure out the rest by yourself. You quickly learn to play tactically and to win.

NOTE: Robert didn’t send me a pic yet so I had to improvise. I don’t know what he looks like so I took a guess. I am probably way off.
