I would still play as I think most would. Just as in the casino, I use to think, why are all these rich millionaire whales in here gambling since they already are rich. And its because they enjoy it (or are addicted).

If I had all that money, I would not stop playing poker, because I love playing, and surely I would play all the big tournaments.

win and will be stopped? is the question

How long would you go without playing poker again? I would only play if there was nothing else to do. I'd probably go a couple of years but if I didn't need to play I wouldn't play and I would stretch that ten million for ten million years. That's seriously how I feel. Poker is a stressful game.


I think anyone who plays poker, and also because like I doubt if you won 10 million you would stop playing with money in your pocket you would play even more and participate large great Field events. That would be a fact.

I particularly that money would invest in something that generates profit.

1st things first, invest half.. 1mil isn't much these days, and you dont wanna get comfortable in that lifestyle and squander it all. After that, I'd pay off my mothers house, and pay off my own so that I no longer need to worry about debt. then, I will make an obvious charitable donation for my good fortune, (and more to come if my investments pay off), and then I guess I'd just live life for a little while. Travel, try new things, see lifetime experiences I never would've seen without that money. Give other people those same experiences who deserve them. but most importantly, i'd need to turn that money into MORE money, so that I can continue this lavish lifestyle, and do all these good things I have in my mind.

oh, and I'd obviously play high stakes poker. duuuh!

Daniel Negranu, watch your chipstack buddy xDD

Invest in some properties, do up a nice apartment for me and my girlfriend, take a break from life and see the world, have enough in my bank to not have to worry for a while and play poker with a 10k bankroll starting at the levels I play now.

i guess it would matter what opens up for you, you have to take into account that you'd be hyper publicized, which can possibly open a few new doors......being a regular on the circuit, but staying casual.

If I won 1 million of dollars, half the amount I would be removed and the rest of the play would further! should still increase your bankroll :)

I wouldn't play online that much, but I would play alot of big live tournaments (not in local casino but international).
I would invest part of the money in houses so my kids could still enjoy it.

Money is like a river, they should float. If you keep the money - they become a swamp. In my case i would spend every single cent for something that creates good things or conditions for the people. Building or buying a couple of factories is good option, fields and greenhouses is another good option and so on. It's quite a good idea, because it is a investment, it also creates profit, it belongs to you and it does something good for this world. I don't believe that putting money into the bank or buying gold is a good idea. Check history lessons - gold prices change, banks become bankrupts and after all - money have no real value. You don't eat money, you don't sleep on money, you don't need money on International Space Station...
If you win 10 millions try to diversificate the risks. keep 1 million for living, spend 1 million to buy a hotel or restaurant, another million to buy the farm, another million to buy a factory that produces something useful, invest 1 million into a well running company = buy shares, another million to buy an island and so on. AND DON'T FORGET TO GIVE ME THE LAST MILLION FOR THIS ADVICE!
