I am motivated by the understanding that if I play badly, then soon hungry times will come for me and I will have to get a job )))

Sometimes I want to buy some thing - then my motivation rises even more.

You need to be able to build a reward system for yourself for learning something new in the game - then regular training will become a habit and will bring constant joy, maintaining motivation...

2 things really keep me motivated.

Its the thrill of victory that makes me want to play and win this game.

The 2nd this is my kids. I am showing them if you put your mind to something and work hard at it you can achieve a lot in this world.

There's no better "motivation" than putting other players to :sleep: - this works even better in any non-knockout event ...

To be honest, the only reason that motivates us is the reward that we can get by playing this game. That's also the reason we even started it, right?

My motivation is that if I keep working on my game and improving it, it will definitely pay off. And of course, there's nothing like winning money or big prizes in a tournament to motivate you

I think many players are primarily motivated by winning, this is the best feeling that you are a winner among a large number of people. The second is to prove to someone that you can earn or become the best in the game, these two factors make and motivate people including me

Before it gave me motivation to play, but now it has gone down a lot before I played a lot of free tournaments but not much anymore because this page does not let you see the passwords before I was platinum, but I was absent for a short time and they sanctioned me

The motivation is the game itself, and winning as much as you can in tournaments!!!

I can't say that I have a motivation, it's a fact, I like to play poker and that's enough!

Motivation is the main element of success in poker. If you have high intrinsic motivation, then you will force yourself to move forward. Optimize your daily routine and forget about failures.

Hi,
My motivation is the obvious motivation : money.
There is other reasons for me to play, mainly the competition and the social aspect of the game.
Gl at the tables.

My motivation to play everyday is to work hard to maybe one day poker becomes a source of extra money every month. I already win money from poker every month, but the amount is too low that really don't make much difference in my life.

There isn't anything that really motivates me enough, I think I have depression or I can't find an explanation for that.
