Taking money from mom?

Heres the thing, i just bought that set of 200 chips from walmart and already ive played like 20 games in my house against my relatives. the problem im new to poker and they think im garbage becasue of thaqt, but thanks to some advice from a few of you guys ive already read doyle's twice. Im getting alot better already because of it. My problem is my whole family talks smack all the time cuz they watch wsop or wpt and they all think there good.
Now i dont consider myself really good yet or anything but in my house i might aswell be a world series vet. We only play small 5$ buy in games and winner take all.. in the past two night ive takin over 30 from my mom alone. is this ok?? i feel bad and i tell her not to play but she insists. what do you think??

    LOL. You have a cool family. I figure if you plunk down a fin then you should be prepared to lose it. Buy your mom something extra nice for Xmas.
    Thanks for the post JuiceMan, made me chuckle.
    :D
  • Don't know who said it originally, but there's an old saying:

    Poker is war disguised as a game!!

    Another one, All is fair in Love and War!!!

    Mom or not, take her out.
    :)
  • Did some one say rebuy? :tongue:
  • Check raise your mom if I were you.
  • is she a MILF?
  • I wouldn't love playing with my mom, good thing she has 0 interest in poker. But honestly I'm sure 5-30 dollars is very little for her, and considering the expense of going out these days is a fairly cheap night of entertainment.

  • Thanks for the input guys..And NO shes not a MILF...lol
  • Mom who Is Limping to see a Flop ?
  • Dudes ... it's your mom.

    you're all going to hell, throw the game
  • Call...Raise..call Raise...Call all night long no matter what she has.. It makes me reall frustrated so finaly i only bet at her with the nuts and really take her chips i feel bad but justified. Its just a friendly home game but money is money is money.
  • I bought my 1000 piece set over a month ago, and went up north to let the family play a game. I didn't have the cheat sheet completed before we started dealing. My mom flopped Quad 2s and she was on her own from there.
  • Perhaps she's just giving you your allowance in a different way?
