How has poker changed your life?

Hello all I would just like too see how poker has changed your life, for better or for worse.

When I met poker , nothing had changed in my life until I decide to try to professionalize me . Now I feel that my life has changed one , focused on investing in direct studies poker. We'll see where I'm going

Freshman - junior year of college, played casually and lost almost every time. This past summer, got a little bit more into it with my coworkers and now my buddies and I play home games multiple times a week... oh yeah and I win a lot more now

Nothing had change in mi life , I just play for fun and also I try to win money that's all , poker Is just a good game that I love to play but it doesn't mean that my life have to change , I just love poker is the best game

Poker didn't change my life!! Perhaps because it's just a hobby for me.

It gave me a relatively good outlet for my addictive personality. Luckily, I can focus it on the game and not necessarily the money. my brain has a real single minded focus once it becomes interested in something, which works great for poker.

Definitely helped me become more patient. Not just at the table, but even in my day to day life. I'd say that it is definitely a good thing.

Poker didn't change my life that much, but it gave me some oddball friends, dragging me in to an all night session once in a while.
so, right now, poker hasn't change my life yet.
Trying to learn more about it for now , reading a book titled Poker By the Book, might help my game next time we have a session...

poker is a great relaxing game to me,just a hobby to me not good enuff lol.but was so glad i was turned on to poker online,i have met alot of great ppl around the world.and cc has been sucha great place to meet alot of good folks ,keep on pokering

I started with poker for fun, I am now studying for winning several tournaments and poker will give me to do several travels the world =)

Its become a focus and learning ontaking for me ... It gives me an enthusiasm and passion that I always looked for ...

Currently it hasn't changed me much, I always spend a lot of on my pc if it wasn't poker it would something else. It has taught me how to deal with stress a little better though.

Went From Not Liking, To Liking, To Loving, Now Obsessed.

I just realised I don't read anymore, maybe I'll go back to my book once the summer comes round again, reading in the garden with a beer might get me away from the computer.

For now not change, but this year I decide study more and start be a professional..

Its a part of life that is not only excites me in a way like no other game, but it also keeps my brain health and helps with the quick decision making parts of it.

I suppose it would be hard to live without now that is in my life.

since childhood I liked to play cards about poker, I read a lot of books first and foremost poker brings me discipline.

I never had a real hobby, some day I found poker in net and i started to play. I felling in love xD it is rivarly, win some real money always is nice, and we can buy something interesting, some more expensive. Better life.

Poker has changed my life for better. Now every day I play to poker. I read books about poker and develop.

Having started playing poker,I made a lot of discoveries,learned some spasobnostyami,poker has added color to my life

Poker added some things in my life but also took my time.
Whenever i get into something new, like poker now or pool couple years ago, i give my maximum. It always pay of. After 2 years of playing pool 6 hours a day(average) i could play with some big shots in the city. I was thinking to do the same thing with poker.

I think worse becouse earlier I spent some time on other activites,sport,going with friends, in Jim and relax ,now I juste play poker and I need to change that....

I seriously started my way in poker, I've two months playing with everything, reading , student, watching live classes , Y and managed to earn a little cash , I 'm looking forward comprenetrarme a little more, for longer putting money and expect to achieve profits high.
This made ​​me play and play several days , and is a passion rather than something that makes momentarily , I look to the future and has as much liked to think , and I would say that change life and change me solidly in the future

Excuse my translation , I do not understand English

I play for about 10 years online poker. I haven`t won any money wich I have payed out. I made no deposit so far, but still it was more like a waste of time. I have spend intersting times but never won. It`s a little bit disappointing.

I see poker as a hobby
I can also say that I dedicate a lot of time in online poker

have fun!
