Hello!
I read various topics on the forum, and it became interesting to me, who has work and stable earnings, and poker for him as a hobby? And who makes a living by playing poker?
I have a small business, and I have enough for family and small joys, but how about you with this?
Thanks to all who will answer!

I have never been able to rely on poker as income but still continue to play as a hobby. Before I was married and had kids, I had a lot more time to play and definitely felt less worried about losing a few hundred on a weekend. Now things are different: I don't have enough time to play and can't take too much risk! You need both of those, if you want to make it pro.

Really tough to rely solely on poker winnings as your only income. very few are lucky enough to be able to do this.

At the moment I do not earn money on real work, because Closed its business due to its unprofitability in the last year of operation. But fortunately, earlier I took care of welfare. Poker is not currently a hobby, but as a small but a chance to make a profit without investing money and save already earned money, which will allow you to earn additional profit in the form of interest on available funds.

I play poker for fun because it is very difficult to live in poker, you have to be playing 24/7 and I think you have too much luck to produce the necarios revenue lol, so I think it is not profitable to live poker, just play for fun and when Make a money, take it as an extra of your normal income.

Poker is just a hobby for me at the moment. I'm retired and it helps to keep me out of mischief. But there’s always that chance of striking it big (dream, dream). :sleep:

I have been playing poker for a long time, the only gambling game in which I'm in a good plus. For me personally this is a way of earning, I also have a small business, sometimes poker brings more revenue per month than business for two.

Hello! I work in the construction industry, the work is hard and I can barely make ends meet) If I had a family, it would be difficult to live) I put a lot of effort into putting poker in high hopes, the only way I can stay stable! I want to support my parents and help other people who need help from outside! But I see progress in my game and I am sure that everything will turn out) To you, I also want faith in myself! Do what you want! Good luck at the poker tables!

Poker for me is a hobby, pastime to relax. And if you make efforts and there will be a little luck - then a small income.
