is it wrong for maths teacher to teach me how to play texus hold'em after school. strictly speaking, he's not allowed 2, but what's the real harm?
he probably would teach me after school, he's not teaching me 2 teach me maths or anything, im his best student, we would use money or anything, and im 14, but he's worried he could be struck off
that should be we wouldnt use money, sorry
and he's bloody good at the game too!

Texas Hold em is filled with math, such as probabilities and statistics, percentages, ect. Maybe he is using a hands on type method to help you better understand math.

I don't see the big deal, He's still teaching you something and it's not like hes taking your lunch money.

If you have a problem with it then explain to him that you're uncomfortable with it. Remember teachers are people too and they're not all old angry white ladies out to follow every single rule in the book.
