Hello, for me poker - it's communication with interesting people, passion, overflowing with emotion game, the joy of victory and the bitterness of defeat. In addition, it is not a large income and the opportunity to spend time with your favorite pastime.

Poker to me of course is a game of skill first, luck second and practice always. I like to play with a "I can do this" attitude. It's not a game for pessimists and if you go in with the attitude thinking you're not going to win, then that's what's going to happen, you won't win.

If you put your mind and heart to it, you can be a winner too. I play with the goal to win and to play worthy opponents (but that doesn't mean I shouldn't go after relatively weaker players).

What Poker means to me.

Not being a really good Poker Player, I really enjoy seeing where the players are from and trying to match style of play with country of origin. However, it is great on those rare occasions when I draw 4 of a kind or even a Royal Flush. That is enjoyable.

Poker means the world [emoji288], it means I can fund the lifestyle that I want and have the freedom from the typical 9-5. It means I can be with my daughter and keep her happy. It means that I can give her the life that I never had and that is the best feeling in the world

For me, poker is an opportunity to afford something I couldn't afford before. At the moment poker is rolling into the abyss, at least online. I hope that poker will live in 50 years.

Poker is a part of my life. I hope that he will start bringing me money for life and travel. I have high hopes for poker.
And yes, thanks to poker, I have a more refined way of thinking.

Poker is a hobby for me. Poker is a serious training for the brain. Poker enhances self-discipline, teaches patience, develops logical thinking.

 

[blanktheman]

for me it's fun, i try keep it fun or I'll let the winning or losing get to my head. I did consider studying to become a pro player but then the game would stop being a hobbie for me. If you see the game as fun, i think you have a better chance of doing well.

 

[mtmigmike]

For me, poker is a hobby, but I hope that I can earn money over time, although I haven't managed to win a lot of money.

Retired: Provides fun thing to do and competition.

It is not at all about the money for me. I am not wealthy but comfortable. It is all about the competition; I am very competitive.

 

[manzanillo53]

Poker is plain and simple, FUN. I like the aspect of trying to out play others or being out played. I do get frustrated with all in players.

 

[efranto2286]

For me poker is game that keeps me busy in my spare time also is exciting you realize that study and dedication your level is growing little by little besides taking some extra money someday if I get to reach a good level hope to live this

 

[whitesmoke420]

I LOVE Texas Hold'em. Even loosing more often than not......it is a wonderful get-a-way for me. I'm not big on parties - or trying to be popular - or anything like that so I have my poker to turn to.

It's a Hobby

I have a taxing full-time job working at least 60 hours per week. To make a living at poker, it obviously requires full-time commitment. My job pays me unconditionally. Poker does not. I might work at poker full-time and win, and I might lose. To use the poker parlance, that's not +EV. So, if I make enough at poker to take a daycation, or buy the wife some clothes, great. If I lose, fine, golf would have cost me more money as a hobby. I would never make poker a vocation unless I had no other marketable skill that paid well or if I were wealthy. Honestly, if you look at most professional poker players, and I know there are exceptions, they probably either don't have a well-paying marketable skill outside of poker, or they have already made their money.

 

[hellomynameiswhat]

poker means a lot of different things to me.
Ideally I would make money someday.
Besides that, It is fun to try to get better anyway. To have new realizations about the game and myself/playing style.

 

[ReoRekop]

It means sacrifice, passion and helped me train my decision making in life

 

[insaneiam]

poker to me is a way to relax, unwind, challenge my mind and win a little cash from time to time. It has become a big part of my daily life and I can't imagine my life without poker.

 

[Ranish625]

Poker for me is just an exciting game, and nothing more, of course I would like to poker became for me also a source of income, I hope my dreams will come true.
