How were their beginnings in poker, since they started playing it what was their first impression how they saw it based on these 3 options hobie, hobby, work or as a lifestyle.

How long did they take to understand the game and how long did they start taking advantage of this passionate game?

On my mind poker for anyone is that, what every player want to recrive from it - for pro it is work, for other players it may be hobby or rest or something else.

Sure, you can make a living from poker too, but I don't want to just play on a hobby level. And this year I'm perfectly satisfied

for me it is not a hobby or a job it is a passion I like poker because if it were for work I would look for something that does not have variance or chance and if it was a hobby I would watch football hahaha

For myself it's a hobby. I'm not a pro and can't see myself spending that much time for it to be a lifestyle.

My oldest friend, age wise, gave me a piece of advice once, he said find out if you are a smoker and be it, otherwise you are just torturing yourself.

Poker is not that simple. Its a passionate hobby that if a "successful" Job would be the perfect Lifestyle

Waiting for me is, first of all, a hobby that helps to relax in the evening after a hard day at work, I sit down to play online at 8 pm and can play for several hours to unload my brain and thoughts.
