To play to the poker is for anyone.
Though many make it for fun I I do it for vocation

I find it relaxing. Occupies the mind and thereby changes my focus from everyday stress.
And of course: when you finally win it's awesome!

Cause it's fun And I get better the more I play

Mostly for fun and a bit of adrenaline never hurt no one. Or did it?!

very exciting and complex game

For fun. It is an excellent strategic game in which you always have to outplay and out think your opponents.

AC & D, so it end up being just D for me

why i play poker

i ilike to play poker to try and relax .it is most times very relaxing to me sept when i keep getting rivered. i do not get the chance to relax most times i have a very bizzy time with a twelve year old.

I play for the excitement and adrenaline rush I get when I play. Very fun as well and of course the money.

A bit of the first three alternatives.

Why do you play poker?

I love poker for the excitement of the game, strategy and psychology is needed, money is definitely very important , but I do it more for fun

For pleasure . In recent years, not to earn money for sure. Although it is not much fun a lot.

After last night's live session, I asked myself that for hours!
Some how I was playing poker in half of my table's slot machine!

To live off poker and working (playing) whenever you want would be so great. Plus if you also play live tournaments you would get to travel the world. The only bad thing i can think about it is to have to cope with the horrible downsings.

A, B, and C.

Also, for challenge of the mind. Poker is a very 'interactive' game, where every move is critical, to create the final outcome - similar to chess, with an added element of luck and chance.

In terms of the social aspect - in a perfect world, you can built genuine friendships with people, through the game. However, you should never let money and friendships mix, inappropriately. Hmm...easier said than done, in this world.

Hmm, I think I play it because I would like to make money out of it eventually and it seems like a very deep and complex game. There is so much to learn about this game which keeps one busy and mentally very active so I think it has some health benefits too. If you don't overdo it of course.

I play for FREEDOM. If I continue to improve at the game and play correctly I know money is possible, But Freedom and Fun are the most important.
