Barry Greenstein's Tips for Dating Poker Players


Barry Greenstein advises paying attention to how a poker player behaves when they lose. He suggests that a poker player who loses control when losing is unlikely to be a supportive partner in difficult times. Greenstein shares a story about a friend who married a successful poker player and later struggled with their expectations. He mentions that he prefers playing poker in casinos due to convenience, safety, and lower rake.

Greenstein advises women to use gender biases in their favor when playing poker. He recalls how he used to introduce himself as a businessman to avoid being targeted in high-stakes games.

Greenstein's insights provide a unique perspective on the poker world and offer valuable advice for those seeking relationships with poker players or looking to improve their own game.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
