What are the shocking truth you need to know about the poker?
For me, the shocking fact about poker is that it's very difficult to win. Possibly you might be on the lossing end all through. What do you think is the most shocking fact about poker that you ever came to know? Is it the rigged games, the pros secrets or something else?
Playing poker is gambling! The sooner you understand that is the better it's going to be for you because some people actually think it's not simply because it's called poker instead of gambling.

While I agree with you that there is an element of chance/gambling in poker, there is also definitely a skill component as well that, I think, separates it from other traditional gambling games like roulette, blackjack, etc. I think it does poker a disservice when people lump them all together as simply "gambling".
Poker can also have its moments and it’s possible to play for days without a single win. Knowing when to fold and how to manage one’s expectations is important in order to minimize frustration that can lead to financial and emotional losses.
