I just play poker for the fun aspect. It is a bonus when I win, but it the fun is the game itself. I hate it when I lose to crap hands where people go into a hand with shag all.

I play for the fun of it. It is a great way to pass away a few hours. The bonus is when you win ! I hate it when I lose to crap hands where people go in with nothing and end up winning by pure fluke. No skill. No strategy.

The challenge of patience and recogninzing the patterns throughout the grind, its hard to remember players at the tables, that's why we have good ole HUD!!!

I love the challenge of becoming a better player and it's such an exciting game. Definitely an adrenaline rush and very satisfying, when you put the hours in and play well and have some decent luck, winning is just awesome! Makes me happy for days if I win a tourney!

why I play

I am retired from work that always kept me planning, budgeting, managing, etc. Poker has become a new lifestyle for me. In the past I have played for the challenges it brings, but now it's all the above. I am a student of this great game and will most likely continue for the rest of my time. Good question, thank you.

Although there is some truth that poker could fit into a game of chance in my opinion is a game of skills is fun in some other case we ended up annoying to not go with a hand that we liked as in others have been knowing that the ebversario could have the winning hand but it is fun and very competitive:bandit:

Ever Learning

In addition to making a profit, it's a ever growing game for learning although the learning part, I think, is minimized with freerolls. It potentially could dummy you down for real poker action.

I like poker for the way you never know enough to master the game. There is always something new to learn and try at the tables. I like the challenge of being the only one left in Tournaments left with chips. You can learn a lot from other players at the tables or here in Cardschat.

Why I Play? Learning curve. I've done many things that require learning a new skill. Some are quick some take a lifetime. I'm still learning poker so the curve is still on the way up. I like that the best. Once the curve is over I sometimes get a little bored. I don't think I will ever get bored of Chess, Poker or Golf. I'm always learning something new or getting better.

I love the challenge and competition of the game . The challenge of making something out of nothing . The mental competition of trying to figure out what the opponent is trying to do . Love the game .

for me, the game of poker has never been about money.Maybe because I make good money and I've never won big money.I just like to play and win.Waiting for a good card, drawing cards....Unrest..

I play poker for fun. Normally I also play lots of games with friends and family. But poker is something you can play all day every day. For me it is also a very cheap hobby, because luckily I made some profit. I like the adrenaline. And it is especially nice when you can smell the bluffs:)
