Story

Introduction

In my book, I use poker as a metaphor for dating to help singles make better choices in dating. In dating, as in poker, you have to know when to hold them and when to fold them. In my book Dating is Like Playing Poker, I combine—using the most popular indoor game in the world—poker with dating—the most emotionally-charged human activity in the world—to join forces and create a way to assess the status of your relationship at any given time.

In playing the game of poker, you have to fold your cards and walk away when you have a weak hand. In dating, you have to recognize when you have a weak partner and know when to walk away from dating that person. I’ll show you how to master your dating life so that you will see when you have picked the right partner.

Unlike most books, where you read to learn information, the information in this book was meant to be used in every dating situation, as it will help you make much better decisions about who continues to be your dating partner. This book has a plug-n-play dating template to help anyone avoid stepping in the potholes of a lousy relationship.

I’ve blended poker and dating so that you can use this tool to manage your relationships more effectively and to date smarter so that there is less chance of an eventual divorce. It took me many years to connect the dots between poker and dating, and I’m so happy to share with you all what I’ve learned.

In dating, just as in playing poker, a wise player folds their hand when they know the odds are against them winning the hand. And the same is true of dating; a smart person will fold their hand when they know there is a lack of compatibility. Bluffing in poker might be an effective way to win in a poker game, but it’s a losing strategy when it comes to relationships, as it breeds distrust.

This is meant to be a fun tool that allows single and divorced people to have a much more effective screening process. In a nutshell, it forces you to focus on dating people where there is a high level of compatibility and avoid staying too long in a relationship where there are major red-flags that indicate potential trouble.

If you're skeptical about using the rules and strategy of poker to help you manage your dating life, I understand that; but I can confidently tell you that once you are done reading this book, you will be much more confident about how you manage your dating life. You will make much better decisions about who you are dating and, subsequently, you will end up with the best possible life partner, as I did. I’m living proof that this concept works very effectively to weed out the wrong partners.

I am Certified Life Coach, and my goal is to help you date smarter with greater awareness; and so, regardless of your age, whether you are 20, 33, 45, 50+, single, divorced, widowed, in a relationship, or in between relationships, then anyone who is dating you will benefit from reading this book, as you need this tool to assess and rate your dating progress. If you are in an existing relationship, then you too will benefit from reading this book, as it will help decide whether or not you should move forward. You will be far less vulnerable to making a mistake in getting involved with the wrong person.

According to published and well-known statistics, in the US, there are on average between 900,000 and 1,000,000 divorces per year. That’s nearly two million men and women that thought they were 100% right in picking their partner but turned out to be 100% wrong! That’s enough people each year to fill up more than 25 packed football stadiums with divorced men and women. Now visualize 25 packed college football stadiums on any given weekend, and that is approximately how many total people will be getting divorced just this year alone.



I wrote this book as a guide to help you become more of a strategic thinker when it comes to the idea of committing to a partner for a lifetime. Unfortunately, the majority of single people are just winging it and hoping that they have picked the right person; but following this system will help you make smarter decisions.

This book is for singles of all ages, and this book will help you better assess the status of your relationship and help you avoid making the wrong choice. For the first time in your dating life, you will now be equipped with a unique tool to help you avoid ignoring red-flags and avoid staying too long in an unhealthy relationship. This process can ultimately lead you to a royal flush relationship like it did for me, which is the goal, as that would signal a high level of compatibility.

Everything in this book is what I used during my post-divorce dating years before I ultimately found my royal flush relationship, went all in, and later got married. Unlike many dating books written by theoreticians that lack recent real-world dating experience, this book was put together primarily because of my past real-world dating experience. I know it works well to guide you to the right partner and avoid staying too long with the wrong partner. That’s why I just had to write this book to help you achieve the same results I did.
