it's good to have ambitions and goals to work towards, especially with something as difficult as poker. Best wishes to you on future felts.

I play poker, because it,s fun sometimes. Also you can earn some money in freerolls or cash games.

I play for fun but it's nice to win a little bit of money. Even though I play for fun it still gets aggravating when I don't get hands or take bad beats!

I used to play rec for a few extra bucks, but now that’s changing. I want to get a solid handle on the game and hone my skills so that I can spend more time with my family. My daughter and fiancé are about to come visit me and the realization set in that I will barely get to see her half the time she is here because my work days are 14 hours long. I will get up long before she wakes up, but only get 1-2 hours of time with her before I have to crash and wake back up at 3 am. I would love to get to the point that I can play for a living, or even play part time to supplement a normal work week.

I play because I still can not relinquish the pipe dream that I might someday be good enough to making a living playing poker.

I play the game because I feel that I can win. Now even more so with the help of Cardschat and these online sites that offer freerolls it can be acomplished without any risk. I just love that! Not to mention I enjoy the game as well.

I had a friend who became a professional poker player. He used to play in private games at London hotels. He actually bought a house on his winnings. We then lost touch, Quite a few years later another friend bumped into the ex professional He was driving a taxi, He had lost everything.

Not an easy life.

AS an OAP i have lots of time on my hands. There are only so many books you can read. I find if I keep to low stakes poker is a cheap form of entertainment.

My primary motivation for playing is financial. I`d like to make enough money to live on. Also it`s better than doing nothing all day.
