why do you play poker?

I play poker for multiple reasons but te money is nice when you win and the excitment of the game is awesome...all in all im gonna play poker for awhile i just think its a good hobie to have!

:help:simply play for lack of anything else to do,when im not at work

I used to play for fun because it was a chance to socialize with my friends, then I played for fun because I liked the excitement and challenge of the game.

In the recent past I've played for money and the fun went away because it seemed like a job.

we play for the benjamins

I play poker because it's a game of stragedy and requires a lot of thinking. Essentially, it's a battle of wits and balls. Who has the guts to make a move and who had the better gameplan? You can never stop learning about the aspects of poker playing. It's also a good adrenaline rush when a tournament gets into the mid to late stages and you have a good change to win. It's a bonus that you can win money with it and it's a great way to socialize with your friends.

I have never felt like poker was for money only, lots of entertainment [excitement] in it for me. Socializing sometimes, but not always.

I play for fun. And as long as im beating the rake, Im having fun.
