Motivation to Play?

its fun and some times profitable... its all you need in life basically, lol

People and friends watching me, motivates to make beautiful plays in poker!

my motivation is learn more about the game because I love poker and I want to be a profesional player

The best motivation in poker is the opportunity to win money)) Or am I wrong?))

For me that is freedom and strong and happy family relationships.

My real motivation is my mom. The chance to get a better things to her and my family and of course I enjoy it. I have many objetives and I undertand that can be posible working and playing poker.

Motivation in poker I don't understand this question fully? Motivation to play or motivation whilst playing?

Mental battles and also honestly a bit of the gambling aspect as well

Excitement, plus an extra penny will not hurt))

Yes it's simple I love to play
Winning is an incredible feeling. Makes me happy and lasts for days

Freeroll is for fun, cash is to take profit extra income

My motivation in the first place is money, but also motivates me the competition

No motivation!
I play for fun.
I admire myself when I win.
I sprinkle my head with ashes when I lose.
In any case, this is emotion and adrenaline.

winning, being able to brag and just to know be as best at poker as i can be

I am motivated by the opportunity not a bad win, but this one is just bad luck

For me, one of the most important motivations for the game is the ability to relax and make money.
although this is not essential. I also play for receiving knowledge while playing
maybe it's a little weird, but sometimes knowledge is more important than money.
when playing I can to improve their

For me it's a fun way to kill time, the joy of winning and make a little bit of money. I enjoy outsmarting the oponent.

having fun, watch others lose

I just enjoy playing poker and at the end of the day there’s always the possibility of winning a couple of dollars.

Hopefully, sometime in the not too distant future, I will either improve my game or get a lucky break or both and make a lot of money. So I suppose that’s my main motivation, but in the meantime I’m happy just playing.

# 1 Money # 2 Money # 3 Money #4 I want to win that one huge game where the word gets out that your the next thing in poker!! #5 last but not least FUN!!!:joyman:

Ir you play for hobby, thats is the motivation itself, win os just a consequence

A chance to make some cha ching is plenty motivation for me. My brother will play poker for play money, that just does not do it for me. Even a game of cribbage, when money is involved, is worth playing, and I tend to skip cribbage if no money is on the line.

Well, the best motivation is perhaps money))

As it seems a few others have echoed: I've found motivational issues in games like Chess where there is a tremendous amount of time, work, and energy involved and yet zero tangible (or really intangible) gain possible. In poker, the motivation is obvious: Money. Once you put money into the mix, the game becomes more important, is something you can justify spending countless hours on as an adult, and offers you a chance to reap rewards for your time and education in the game.

I think you don`t nedd ny motivation to play poker when you feel free to play, than just go for it
