Teach your kids bridge, not poker
&gt; Unless you want to introduce gambling to your children, this fact alone disqualifies poker.<p>Why wouldn&#x27;t I?  Gambling teaches math, probability, detecting deception, the sunk cost fallacy, sticking to a budget, dealing with disappointment, and if you win, generosity of sharing your win.<p>Maybe I&#x27;m biased because growing up Jewish we learn gambling at a very young age (playing dreidel) but we&#x27;re also using blackjack and poker with our kids to teach them all the things I said above.
