what do you keep motivated to play poker?

[JBGoode]

motivation is never an issue, I either wanna play or I don't. If I don't want to play, and force myself too then I lose almost every time. With anything that involved making money you gotta love to do it, or you will end up losing. It's as simple as that.

 

[JOKE on YOU]

What keeps me motivated is the fact that you get to meet different people from all over the world but we speak the same language, poker that is, different styles of different minds ,playing mind games to keep every one on their toes , plus the fact that I want to get everything I lost learning the game

the chance of winning.

Usually just the occasional win and the hope of obtaining some cash will keep me going.

I just want to become a better poker player.It's striving to be better at the game and ultimately get to a place where I'm winning more than I'm losing is my motivation. That, and then the fact that I just love the game.

 

[Chito]

Never had this problem honestly. I just genuine enjoy the game I guess.

I think it's very hard to be poker professionals and to live on it. Play because it's fun, then the successes will come.​

The competition is probably the biggest thing that motivates me to continue. But the intellectual and psychological elements of the game draw me in as well. Poker constantly tests my discipline, level-headedness, and a myriad of other qualities that I think are important to have in day to day life.

I also at this point make my livelihood from playing, teaching, and vlogging about poker, so that's a solid motivation too. But even without making money, there's a purity of enjoyment that I still get from playing - I think I'll always be a poker player.

I just enjoy playing the game. And winning money is also a nice motivator.

Ditto, a hobby that can help with the bills....

The only motivation for me in poker is earning money and preferably not losing.

 

[Lena M]

Hello.
I really like poker, although I play only 5 months.
I enjoy the game and when I have free time, I always try to play and improve my skills. The best motivation for me is my results that are getting better every day.

 

[Artishell]

Many things motivate you to play poker. But, whatever it is, the main thing for me is the possibility of winning significant funds from small investments.

 

[mariuspoker1]

I believe the number one motivation for most people to play poker is the fact that poker gives you the opportunity to win some extra money only by doing an enjoyable thing named "playing poker".

 

[TrpeLoco]

I like to play.My main motivation is money.Because of the money poker is exciting

 

[Syltan]

For the best motivator to play poker corny and simple is money. And who would not say that it is money that attracts new players and keeps the old in this industry. And units can afford to play for fun.

 

[xexeu]

[asalco94]

Well, I do not usually need motivation to play, I just go in and that's it, what matters is winning and winning, maybe that's my motivation.

 

[NinjaHands]

I just love the game. I enjoy playing online as a way to chill, so I usually have Ozzyman & Mozza's show on while I'm playing, lately. Which is exactly what I'm doing right now.

It's a way to recharge for me, but I don't have much time to do it. So basically if I have time on a Saturday, I sit down and try to make some bankrolls grow
