I see it as my future profession, because I still don't have the necessary structure to be.
schedules and money are the big difference for me for poker to stop being a hobby:)

So far, poker is a hobby for me. This game always brings me joy, and I hope that in the future my favorite hobby will start to bring me income.

I consider poker to be a hobit. because I always take pleasure in playing this game for hours on end. I will be lucky enough to make a big win. I could perhaps consider making a profession of it. even if it is not really an imperative or an object that I must achieve at all costs.

It always starts as a hobby but over time you get to know more about the game and you like it more and when you understand it and you see that you have advantages to earn extra money you will take it more seriously and start studying more about poker, when you are in that Stage without realizing it can become like a job or an office for extra money doing what you like, later you will see if you leave it like that or continue to improve your game to become a professional and live 100% of poker or do it as a style of life.

hobby

I see it as a hobby, since my main goal is to have fun playing it. Furthermore I'm a losing player, so I'd be in trouble if it was my job haha

Considering the game of poker as a job is a very stupid idea! Earnings are unstable (to put it mildly), constant stress and many other negative factors.

Poker is a hobby to me. I think the effort it takes to play poker fulltime is too much, and the uncertainty makes this even worse.

Only a robot, it must continue for a long time, earning money is not so easy, someone has to lose for that.

For me, it's a job ( because that's what I feed my family), but it's my favorite job ( so it's kind of a hobby). As they say if you find your favorite job you will not work a single day!

As a hobby, because it is a game and there is the factor of luck in a big percentage. The nice would be to become one of the main income sources!

Hello. Poker has been a hobby, but after reading a few articles on MTT, I ammaking money, reckon you can call it a job now.

I have a real job ,so poker is a way to supplement my income . If I stick to freeroll tournaments and low level cash and tournaments games,I will be way ahead. but unfortunately ,I bite more than I can chew

At the moment I consider poker as a hobby. Maybe along the way when I can do good calculations and my winnings were more stable, I will consider playing professional poker.
:cool:

I consider Poker a hobby since i love maths and chance. It helps to open my mind sometimes. I really enjoy playing it, and not actually seeing it as a source of income. Like any other enjoyable thing to spend money on, this is the same thing, but in this case you can also make it profitable. It really depends on what do you want/expect from it.
