I srsly want this game to support more on improving skills such as decisions making, assets management and opportunity costs =), so yeah that means something in my life.

For me it's a hobby until it becomes profitable enough to call it something else.

I wanted it to become a hobby but it gets boring live. You become too sedative sitting there for hours. So, now I play for fun.

Once it became so boring that the thought of playing poker at the casino made me puke. Believe me.

After that, took a 3 month break and only play once in a week/couple of weeks.

Finally disappears and the shadow that little hobby and you accept the other sports.

He started playing poker about four years ago as a hobby. Later I thought, why not earn poker. And abruptly began to play. I played minus, until he realized that the win could only professional players and beginners to get results, you need to really work hard and constantly work on the game and errors. Now, poker became my hobby that brings me pleasure and relaxation.: D: D: D

When I was learning to play, I eat, slept, and breathed poker. It's a fun game, but it's nothing that I want to build an unhealthy dependence to. My father gambled away multiple millions of dollars when I was a kid, and we lost our house, business, and caused my parents to get a divorce. Granted that's an extreme case, I see how it could happen. I try to distance myself from getting too attached. It's fun as hell though :)

It's just a hobby for me, I am not good enough to play at a consistent level and I am too focused on other things in life to play a lot. I prefer to study math.

For me it started only as a hobby, but I believe that today I have poker as something of daily life and that brings me joy, practically a dependency.

So that's it, GL and we meet at the tables !!!

Definitely, if you are good in the game the results obtained will make the Poker step by step a dependence.

Poker you need

Do you miss playing poker? How often do you play? Do you consider poker a vice ?, I miss playing poker, I play every day and I think poker is a very tasty addiction.

I usually play every day. Poker can be a vice, it depends on your approach.
