A few days ago was a tournament i dont remember at this point the name. however the 1st place was winining by a 22 years old guy and the first prize was 9 mil dolars. So the question is what You will do with that kind of money? Do You stop playing poker or go to play bigger amount of money? Hmmm

I will play but just for fun

At 9mil dollars you are already rich, don't need to play more, you can easily live off of that and do as you wish.

I agree with you
but poker is first and foremost Pleasure

In principle I aspire to play better, then to get some extra dollars and, someday, to live from poker. Being a millionaire in my case is just a dream (I would like to win some great tournament but it doesn't motivate me to be rich). Of course I would like to have a good time, without deprivation.

Greetings.

That's pretty amazing that a twenty-two year old guy won a cool nine million dollars, tell you one thing, I'm extremely glad not to have won that money at that age myself- I wouldn't be here to type this now.

Thankfully now is a different story.

Most certainly I'd keep playing, it's the entire point! Raise enough capital for 'the plan'...

Nine million would be a great start, but it's not enough to get the snowball started... Close though!

I would still play poker because I enjoy playing. But I would play for bigger stacks lol

I would like to have been playing for many years, especially 50% of 50 victories and money, I’m lucky as they say the strongest!

If I'd win 9.000.000$ at a poker tournament, that would be it for me. I wouldn't play poker for money anymore (because if I was to win such a major tournament means I'm really going for it, investing a lot of money in poker) and only play for fun small amounts of money.

with a prize that clearly would play higher level, but would rise gradually and had the ability to play these levels!

I gave up getting rich from poker
I don’t live where there are enough options to play
Also exchange rate to US dollar is too high to travel and play often.

Maybe in live play at the casino. Online poker I think I'm gonna give up dreams of getting rich because there's too many bad beats. I'll be happy if I can cash out at least once before 2021.

I don't aspire to be a millionaire but, come on, who wouldn't like it?

With the way I play?

i will play poker of course, but that is a lot of money, i will do some projects to keep the money alive

They would keep playing for the fun of the game.

I'll try my hand at poker. Maybe it will bring me luck and a lot of money. Although most likely I will find myself in a huge net for fishing.

Maybe one day))) But now I just enjoy playing the game. It's the way of relaxing, meditation and getting experience. May be one day I will be experienced enough to get money for this)))

The truth is not because I still have a lot to consider myself a great player but I like to make new friends and have fun healthily

What I will do with that kind of money is buy my mom a nice house in a good area, furniture, go on vacations. I will still keep on playing but the same amount of when I was on the normal side. Perhaps invest it.

with that kind of money, I would continue to play other tournaments with good prizes to try to win further and raise more

Personally I don't have any plans of making some extravagant win to conceal the rest of my days in the high life. I enjoy the game and respect the risk involved with poker. Of course it would be nice to win a nice tournament with cashed being displayed across the table but many of us will never get there. I have had some friends who have done this but it was a full-time job. Not to say that it is a bad thing, just a lot of stress especially dealing with the beats taken in the money.

I like to play poker, I would continue to play, perhaps at higher stakes. You can afford to travel to major poker tournaments around the world.

i hope to get rich from poker! I have been playing tirelessly every day, one day I get there!

Better then getting poor from it!

Yes of course I hope. Everything can be.

Of course that is the pipe dream . Though it has become a lot less likely over the last decade. Still out here hoping for that life heater ! ! !

Hello.
For me, poker is a hobby, an opportunity to have fun. And if I ever get lucky to win a million, I will continue to play this game.

Hi.
Of course, I have a dream. But my dream is to learn to play poker well enough to be able to make money. And that would be enough for me.
Good luck.

You should learn poker so that you can make money for me.
(joking)

I honestly do not hope to get rich from poker, but it is doable ... poker should be played for pleasure not for the sake of money, but if some nice tournament is won it is not a waste

Yes, I HOPE to get rich from playing poker. But that would require buy-ins far beyond those I can afford.
If I won a lot of money, I would invest it somewhere so that I would earn enough for a decent living and if to play poker, only just for fun.

Only just for fun. If i have time anymore. ��

If i win such amount of money i will continue to play but for sure will use at least half of the money to invest in things which will provide healthy and steady income for many years.

While getting rich is not a daily thought or immediate goal in poker, I would be lying if I said I never dreamed of winning a big WSOP championship. Obviously I play because I truly love the game, and competition, but would be very happy if I won some life changing Manley.

I thought 1100 was pretty good a few weeks ago but.. 9mil. thats life changing money. I'd immediately stop playing and start living my life. Theres so much more to life than gambling.

Would be great to win a bracelet

no, only famous, and very rich

Anniversery Sumday Million is always a hunt to become a milionear for me

Yep i think if one day i will be this 9mil lucker i would consider the best way to earn more money from this money for example start some amazon affiliate website or gambling affiliate and work on this till it will gave me something like 50-100k$ passive income monthly.

When you have 9 mil you can focus on build something great, you have financial resources to keep it growing and you don't have to worry about things like you don't have money to pay your rent, buy food etc.

This is a difficult question. I think I would keep a certain amount of money probably 500,000 or so to keep playing, while with the other money I would use or save.

hi hi
i no goin to become wealthy playing freerolls & $1 tournaments lol

Everyone dreams of winning a million. But my goal is to earn regular and steady income. Therefore, even if I am lucky to win big money, I will still play.

if I win that amount I 'll quit my job and go to the Bahamas

I sit and smoke dreaming of such money

For most mortals, playing poker should be a complementary activity. You must have at least one guaranteed source of income. It is a catastrophic mistake to think that poker is going to save our economic life.

I hope to have fun and break even or better

I believe that doing business that you sincerely love can make you rich.

Being a 37 old guy I am already a millionaire. That fortune was made by me during 2008 stock market crash and investments.
I never take Poker as a money minting thing.
I play it as a fun and playing since August 2015 after watching Casino Royale movie.
yah, anybody wining such amount is a rich guy but being rich is not enough. The key thing is to sustain it with modesty.

Man , these bad beats are killing my chances for a better result . If I can't win on the long run with some very good hands , but always I face a weaker hand winning , or fake flips , really devastating . I can't see me winning sth great if I don't learn the tricks in online poker , if I don't watch many online games and tables , cards face up , immitation and adaptation , or fail ....
