Poker Face?

The other day we were playing poker after work and I realized something: poker players are like some of the women I've met Some of them sit at the table and risk what they have until the very end, no matter what happens. Those are the women that get pregnant but are not afraid to carry their pregnancy to the end, so they are the winners. But the reality is that most of the women are like those players that wanna play but don't wanna take risks, they fold as soon as they can and then they are upset and sad because they haven't won.

What I wanna point out is that in life, like in poker, if you don't risk, you don't win. The thing that women need to know is that obviously risking is risky, I mean, in poker you need to risk and so you call and you raise and finally you win. There are some moments when you really think you are gonna loose, that you have no chance of winning but at the end you are the winner, the happy one. In abortion that would be the one that even if she is afraid of losing (not her money but her friends, job, etc) she keeps trying and fighting for her baby until he is born and they end up being the happy ones. On the other hand the woman that risks but gets scared and folds does not win, she's the sad woman, the ones that aborts and ends up with nothing. She may have kept her money but she has lost the possibility of winning, or, what is worse, of meeting her child.

If you play poker, risk it.
