Hello all, I have some questions. I'm very new to this and I'm honestly not sure where to start. (reddthat.com)

I enjoy games, is bluffing such as in poker forbidden? I don't gamble.
Where do I start?
I don't understand meditation. Maybe I'm not doing it correctly?
Where does the Buddhist code vs religion start. For example I was told you could for example be a Christian/Muslim/Jew/Tao/Hindu/exct and Buddhist.
Why do you personally feel this religion is real? Is there something that made you drawn to it?

Would a Buddhist bluff at poker?

(They say yes, bluffing in poker is fine, but false shit talking/"you should fold because my hand is so much better trust me!" is perhaps to be avoided.)
