I am competitive .. that is it.

I love a challenge, I was always fighting for top of my class (usually won).

So what about this? I always had big problems remebering names and faces of my students. After a 3 year break of teaching and 1 Year of playing poker daily I returned to classes and was able to remember names of 23 students without problems...
(maybe because I trained my brain to remember which player made what move?)
I play poker because it never gets boring with the different stages in the tournament, different players, different stack sizes and last but not least different cards.

So you recomanded poker like therapy your students :D

What I like the most about poker is to be able to succeed where all the others have failed. I have the feeling of satisfaction that it gives me. Well on without money the game would have no interest.

I have a bad back, and want to make money from home, and something else a lot of ppl haven't mentioned is being your own boss, answering to no one and feeling free of slavery from the classic job

When asked why they play poker, people often respond because they love this game
For me there are two reasons ... 1) adrenaline 2) the ability to make money
What is your reason to play poker?

Both, i want to get king of poker with real prices, but thats a far, hard way. I want to win over every concurrents. I would also play poker with friends, but only one of them is interested in poker.
:boxing:

I play poker for fun and to earn a bit of money. When you introduce the concept of betting, poker gained quite a bit of skill and psychology. I think that poker is part of my life now :)

The main reasons why I play poker are:
1. Because I have the opportunity to earn money.
2. Because I have fun at the tables, it is a way of forgetting personal problems.
3. It allows me to meet people from all over the world.:cool::cool::cool:

Here many write that poker is a workout of the brain, most likely poker is constant nerves and cold calculation, and on account of the earnings, if there is no cache Megane earn

Poker is a highly competitive sport both inside and outside the ring. You need to constantly study and stay on top of the innovations. You also need to outplay your opponents with any resources you have available. It's a game with many facets and angles and to master the sport means you need to master every aspect and constantly refine them. I enjoy it because beating your opponents and gaining money directly because of it is so exciting.

I play online poker because it's convenient and poker is a strategy game that I like. Been playing live poker since I've been a kid, so I guess it's kind of a habit as well. Good luck.

I have been playing poker since i was a kid. I do web development as a side gig which can be monotonous at times, so I often play whilst working. Overall just a great hobby

I enjoy the competitiveness targeting particular players, the adrenaline rush of going all-in and of course winning money too.

Well the easy answer is the money. However I play for the fun as well. I love poker and wish I was a pro, sure would be a happier life than the back breaking job I do all day.

For art, of course.
for winning other players in the same conditions, and the satisfaction of making good decisions

Hello! For me, this is an additional opportunity to earn money, and 2 is adrenaline, of course, at the 3rd place is communication, new acquaintances, but so far it’s almost impossible to go to live tournaments ((

Adrenaline of course, which is lacking in life gives me poker.

Play for fun, for money. Offline poker is a great opportunity to spend time with friends.

Poker is a wonderful game, it makes you think, make decisions, your brain is totally active. without a doubt, the best hobby and if possible to make money is great but It is not the main reason why I play for fun.
