interesting topic ... just like that, everyone plays for some reason, i play because i love cards, partly to make some money, and the adrenaline that gets created when you play, you just enjoy playing texas holdem :D

I like to think that I play to win/make money but, in reality I play for fun as a hobby. I try to study some and keep it a cheap hobby.

The general idea of mine is actually to prove my own self that I can win a tournament.

And I also kind of like the idea and the perception of confronting someone else, in order to prove to him/her that I'm better ;)

I used to play poker strictly to make money. I played limit games and those games are not all that common anymore. Now I tend to play more for entertainment and to get away from the family. LOL

Hmmm, why poker game? Good question. I would have several reasons, one would be that it's a hobby, and I like books a lot.

I think everyone plays to make money, there may be the small minority who play to "have fun" but I think that due to the competitive spirit of the human being, most people like adrenaline. I play because it's a profitable game so far!

Play as a hobby that I can make a small profit each month. Pretty much a recluse so it helps past the time. Also for the competition as I use to drag race

I had a big break, 3 years. Now he has resumed the game due to quarantine. It's nice to pass the time, chopped in the zoom, play in the tournament. Of course I want to make money, but so far there has not been much success.

hi...a lot of people play poker.and they play for different reasons.Someone plays to relax, to reset the adrenaline, someone from the habit, many play to have fun.A certain part plays to make money.What category do you belong to??
This game teaches rewarding good deeds, like thinking logically and understanding other people; while punishing bad actions, such as ignoring the odds and acting impulsively. For example, if you are impatient or illogical or cannot analyze risks and rewards, you will lose in poker, and you will make many mistakes in business and personal relationships. Therefore poker teaches us to control emotions, this can be extrapolated to be more effective in any situation.

Hi. I had a difficult period in my life and I started playing poker to distract from problems. I started going to live poker clubs, at night I played poker and slept during the day. This lifestyle helped me forget about stress. From the first days of playing poker, I realized that I can make money from it, this was enough for me to refuel a car or buy something for myself. Later, this game became a hobby for me, I gradually switched to online poker since live clubs in our city were closing. I like that poker is part of my life.

it seems to me that there is a separate category of players - members of cardchat.These are players who want to learn how to play well. I think that there are no professionals among the regular members of the club. And if there is the in administration.

Currently, I returned to the poker due to mandatory quarantine rules in argentina, but I learned to play it many years ago for fun, discovering every day that also serves to make money (prompting me that interests me even more) ..

I play because its challenging and something to do from home during this quarantine. It's a great time killer especially when you're stuck in the same spot for long periods of time.

I like strategy games. I also like the rush of gambling, but refuse to play games where I can't generate an edge. (Whether or not I have an edge is debatable, but it is possible.) I also want a career I can continue in a post-apocalyptic world. (It's coming.) I wonder sometimes if my love of poker is founded in an unexplored well of masochism.
