After several months my wife, the bingo addict, has decided to learn to play poker. She is a *great* card player in games such as spades with very good card sense. She went online at UB and started out in the .25/.50 games with a $10 buy-in, which she quickly increased. Even though she expects to see substantial swings in her bankroll, I expect that very soon she'll be funding her bingo with her own winnings :-) This is a Good Thing (tm).

Her favorite part of poker? Being able to be aggresive and not at the mercy of blink luck!

She is already playing much less, and she has kept her initial bankroll fairly healthy for the last few days. However .......

It appears I have traded "Honey, can I have more bingo money?" for bad beat stories :-).
