I like poker and gives me something to do being retired.

Playing Poker

Lots of reasons I play poker as every hand is a new game. I am retired now so poker fills a void in my life with the extra time I now have. Love playing with friends and as well every couple months head up to the casino's for some live action games.

Poker keeps ones mind sharp as mentioned before every hand presents new options and chances to rake in a big pot.

Cheers :beer:

Stress relief and calming down from the day would be the #1 reason.

I play poker because it is fun and the television program leaves something to be desired.

I play to win and for the rush of winning a big hand . I don't do it too often, but the deeper I go in a tournament the bigger the rush from winning a big hand is. I love that feeling. The downside is the lows of lossing what might have been a big hand. Anyways, I love the game and will always play, win or loose.

I started playing poker to have a good time and to socialize. But after I got hurt and lost my job I started putting in the time studying and playing to where it's now my sole source of income. So poker like everything in life can evolve in how it plays a part in your life.

I've always been really into numbers, statistics, and card games. Poker is a great combination and since I learned to play years ago it has became, by far, my favorite card game. There are so many elements to playing good poker.

For me, this is primarily a competition. The most affordable possible. It's nice to win. Excitement. Yes, I think it's sports excitement.

I play poker because I like the game and I enjoy spending time in this game, and even better when I win somewhere and get extra profit and replenish my bankroll!

I play to live. The salary is not enough for all my requests - so I need an additional source of income. For me, it's poker.

I play poker because it gives me pleasure. Of course, I am pleased when I win money, but still, I get more pleasure when I make the right decisions.

I always played poker to make money from the very beginning. This was once I realized that it was a skill game and I would win in the long run if I outplayed my opponents.

Because to be honest, while I do enjoy the strategy and theory behind poker a lot, if I wanted pure mental stimulation, I would actually play chess more often which I feel is a deeper and more complex game. And if I wanted to just relax and unwind, then honestly I enjoy video games more.

So while I guess I do play poker for "fun/strategy" I would be lying if I didn't admit that the profit/money factor is the biggest draw for me. This game has changed my entire life, nuff said :)
