My motivation in poker is to be able to win a high-level tournament, in short, my goal is to make money, and for that you need to have great tournaments.

I would be lying if I said that the main motivation is not money. But there is another thing that also motivates me to continue playing and that is to perfect my game, I hope one day I will play in the real casino and see if everything I have learned helps me to make a living from this, which is what I really like.

The game process itself is the best motivation for me. I enjoy poker, and so as soon as I have free time and a good mood I play.

My motivation is very commonplace, it's money.

Winning motivates best. It also boosts my self-esteem. But even without victories, I am always motivated to play, as I am sick with the game. I love to play poker.

My main motivation is the money, I like the idea of having an extra money every month. But I also like when I win a tournament, it makes me feel good to know that I was able to beat hundreds or thousands of players.

My reason is that I've always played poker for nothing for sport today I have a chance to play without putting any money and still earn extra money I've already won something around 600 usd in freeroll for about 6 months playing already motivates a lot

Becoming one of the first Surinamese to make it far in poker motivates me in playing it.
Where i am from it is still considered bingo gambling like roulette by most of the people here.
I would like to prove them wrong:deal:

I don't enjoy TV too much and I am semi-retired, so I have lots of time and there is no better form of entertainment for me available. I have another hobby (learning languages), but I can't be learning languages all the time because it would be too boring. Money does not motivate me. I am not playing poker to make money..

That's one of the main reason for most, I always look for a balance because poker is my passion and playing well is an art, but I respect your opinion, keep going.:cool:

Go with the team

I guess I will have to go with the team hear. My main goal is to make a profit. Of course, I’m still in a bad position to make a profit as I’m constantly losing my weekly 20$ but I just finished 7th in a free roll tournament today! So that motivates me as well!

The motivation to keep getting better and be better is my motivation to keep playing. I like the game but don't like when I get beat so I have to get better and the only way to do this is to keep playing.
Shuffle up and deal!

The emotions I receive when I play, make me feel good and if something makes me feel good why give up on something like that?
