What gives you the motivation to play and play poker even after loose streaks of multiple trips to opponents and a heavy loss of the pot.
I live from Ukraine, 100 kilometers from Russia, I have a family, I only earn money at the moment, my motivation to feed my family and pay bills is unlimited! God bless you with such motivation.

Hello:)
Poker is the game that the more I play it the more I like it and play it more and more. For me, all I need is time, but my desire to play is always there.

Everyone has their own motivation to win a poker tournament. I am motivated by the winnings that are placed in a tournament.

My love of the game motivates me to keep coming back even during bad variance streaks. Its like any other hobby, where you learn more through trial and error.

Luka, the pursuit of success is what motivates me, and my success should be the tool that will help other people to be motivated...

I want to help people and be helped...

Apart from earning money, the satisfaction of being first in tournaments is priceless.

My motivation is knowing that I have an edge over the field in the average tournaments that I play and understanding that variance is part of the game. Sometimes the donks will win. Sometimes you will get AA all in against KK and lose. Sometimes you can play a whole tournament without getting a playable hand.

One of the most eye-opening things I saw was a site called primedope that will show you the likely win rates for your given game. You can plug in the average tournament stats like number of entries, pay out structure etc. and your ROI. Even relatively small field tournaments with an ROI of 30%, there is still a very real possibility of being down over 500 tournaments, which seems insane, but that is how brutal variance can be sometimes.

Belief in victory inspires. Without faith it is difficult in that life. And the prizes give an incentive to continue fighting for victory! y)
