I have always seen poker in a different light, in comparison to other games like slots, it takes actual discipline and some strategy to Excell at poker, there is some strategy on it. Besides, taking online lessons is different from just sitting that see someone play. In my opinion, Slot streams are rather more about advertisement than entertainment. It is more likely someone would feel like trying the same casino and slot game they have seen on a stream, instead of going for some random option.
At least, while watching poker one can learn, right? There is no much to learn in pure luck bases games.
And I think we also learn to play poker from streaming shows on Youtube or other sites. But all gambling games require discipline to anticipate losing a lot of money. And while enjoying the gambling game that we play by limiting the use of money.
Even though, games like poker require some effort to learn and play efficiently, it can be more rewarding to know that you are winning not only because of luck but because you have managed to master your own skills to deceive your foe on how good or bad your hand is.
It is one of the reasons I would like to continue playing again when I have some spare time and not only burn time rolling dices once and again and again.
Also de magic of poker is getting to meet with friends and share some drinks while playing, the social part of poker and card games in general.
