I am becoming better at understanding the part that emotion and skewed thoughts play in the game (why did he just call my huge raise?) and it is also my favorite part of the game.

Yeah I love that feeling when you know you've gotten the most out of a hand, and the adrenaline rush on showdowns

Hehe nothing better than having a pocket pair and you flop three of a kind, and your opponent shows two pair aces up... or if you have a higher flush than your opponent.

Well I think if you bluff the table with a 27 offsuit for a big pot, that might get alittle bigger grin out of myself ;) !

i like the rush of playing for real money at a home game, where you can actually see the expression on someones face when you bust up their pocket aces with your 79 off suit, lol

It is great to decieve other players. Its one of the best things to do in poker. I love putting other players on tilt and then winning even more money off of them. It is also so much fun to see people get mad because I won a pot.

My favorite thing is the kick on poker.

You can have a sooooo Super hand and the river destroy or the other one bluffs you to death.

I like it a lot and you need much more skill then a lot of people say.

Yeah, luck is a huge part but without skill you are lost

If your motivation is to annoy other players, and it brings you joy and satisfaction, then most likely you will not be able to achieve good results in the long run, because instead of learning and improving your own skills, you focused on how to annoy other players: )
Of course, it can be fun, but nothing more.

What I like about poker is when you win a hand, because you feel a unique sensation, which is not very easy to achieve.
I also like to analyze my hands and also those of my rivals, because I want to grow little by little to be able to climb to higher levels.
Of course I also like to earn money.

my favorite things about poker is that you can play it however you want and there is nothing wrong with that, as long as you aren't cheating.

there is no real wrong way to play poker, in my opinion. yes, there are more profitable ways to play to play poker, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's the correct way for everyone.

if one player's goal is to move in stakes and make a living playing poker, then you'll play in a way that is profitable. if another player's goal is to play for fun and maybe get a bit lucky in tournaments, but they have no desire to make it a lifestyle, then they're going to play a lot differently than the first player. neither is wrong in how they choose to play.

I think it's this emotional shudder when you play. It's happening ussually when you play all in but not always. It appears even when you are bluffing. Great feeling.

Poker most often attracts 16-24 year old men, and quite often this category of guys has testosterone going through the roof, they have a huge ego, or vice versa - an inferiority complex. It's nice to beat an opponent on the river when he already thought he would win.

I like how crucial each decision is. This applies in life! In poker, I feel the freedom to do whatever I want, and whether I do well or not is a result of my own choices. That's why I like poker.

On the contrary, I get pleasure when I take away the chips of an opponent who is bluffing for no reason. An unsuccessful bluff is like a blow with a wet rag, such situations make me very happy :)

I most like taking chips from bad players who won these chips with their luck and don't know how to play and then they play poorly and show their terrible game from these people. I love taking chips and then talking, you see you're a bad player well tell themselves they don't need to tell themselves they won't change:)
