I play for profit!

Poker gives better odds, payouts and you don't play the house.

Every person has for something interest. Someone has billiards, someone has chess, well, I like poker for his unpredictability, a little mathematics, a little good luck, and most importantly for its availability, if we talk about online poker. I can play where there is an Internet and when I have a desire :)

Because I am much more passionate than that first time I met him and I could really know what it is about there in 2013, which was when I started playing it and to this day I am much more passionate about it.

What other spot in the world can you rock up and test yourself with the best in the world, I relish the fact that I can get 2 outed by a pokerstars 'pro' and then go and study my play and feel confident about next time.

I got to know poker through a friend around 2010. Since then I've been playing casually, hoping to one day find myself and become profitable, which I haven't been able to do so far hehehe. But I have a lot of fun playing. I had stopped playing 6 years ago, and I came back this year with the pandemic, I want to improve my game and at least make extra income with poker, I don't expect great results, but at least something that will allow me to buy gifts for myself same, trade my PC, buy a PS5, pay for my games and books. Things like.

I only play for fun. Poker is not my main source of income as there is a good job that I am not going to quit.

I play for the love of the game, the challenge of beating 8 other players at the table, or the many hundred's sometime's thousands of players in the MTTs.
Poker is a social experience, which is needed now more than ever, since the Covid outbreak, and even Cardschat has helped me through these terrible time's because I get to chat with like minded players.
We may not always agree, but isn't that what makes us all human? Some players want to make money from Poker, personally I don't, I made my money through hard work and planning for my retirement, which I am now enjoying, and Poker is just one of the many things, that I do enjoy.
Winning or losing is not that important for me, being part of the game, and taking part is what really drives me, If I lose, it is never that much, and my past results have led me to be able to play without making any deposit's, so basically every game is a free-roll, whether I have paid a buy-in or not.
Poker is a thinking man's game, It helps to keep my brain active, and is an enjoyable, exciting, fun game.

When the fun Stops, STOP!
(I will)

玩撲克最重要的是贏錢,但在這個過程中,我了解到做任何決定都不應該以結果為導向,而應該做出最好的決定。
最重要的是要學會耐心和情緒控制。

I play poker to evolve my mind and earn extra income, who knows in the future I can evolve into a professional, but after all poker is just a game for adults, in my childhood and adolescence I played various types of games, that's it , in advance, thank you for the understanding of the readers, kindly Alfredo.

I learned poker from a classmate, and so we started to play at school. Later I had always friends who also liked the game, and sometimes we organized little tournaments, which I won several times. During the pandemic, I started to play online and now I´m looking forward to the next completion in "real life".

Because poker is different and dynamic (usually a turbo, i.e. the speed of the blinds is 5-6 minutes) and consists of many details that need to be taken into account (your position, stack, stages, opponents play, analysis of your play, self-study, etc.).

I love poker for its unpredictability, excitement and desire to be a winner. After playing a little poker, I found out for myself that sometimes winning in cash games is not as interesting as being the winner in a tournament. Now I play mainly tournaments and try to make my game as effective as possible in order to get into the prize zone.
