So you’ve found a good home game. Realize that by nature of the fact that you are a thinking, strategy-minded poker player, you already may have one or two strikes against you when it comes to getting invited back.
As a reader of poker strategy articles (and someone who studies the game in other ways, too), you’re probably better than most of the people you play against in a typical home game. As such, you will likely be in many situations when you are pulling in the pot — and making losers of your opponents. Such a dynamic does not do much to engender great affection from your fellow poker players.
