Why do you play poker for money or fun?

[beatlebug]

I have a great time playing poker. I play buyins and freerolls. Have better luck at the buyins than I do in the freerolls as the players love to shove a lot in the freerolls.

Its all fun and games for me till I maybe retire and have more time to play. I like playing with friends and family and l love the poker rooms and online is more of a lately thing at night. Good luck.

Money and fun, but win money is far more fun.

 

[ddsnoops]

Just for fun for me, money is involved but it's only pennies

Legally, after I love poker, if I play for money, I feel it more interesting and attractive, the current competition is excellent, we win many fish in micro limits and it is very profitable, we have to play for a short time within those limits. try to advance as fast as we can ,,, good luck friends ,, I just love healthy competition ,,, that win those who have the best. Poker ,, it's time to study and that luck be with us ,,, greetings ,, we look at each other at the cash tables ..

I play poker for fun and money. Its a fun downtime game.

 

[B1BOMBER]

Well I play for the enjoyment. I love the game and I'm a very winning player and figure if I can play the game for many hours and break even or make money, what more can you ask for!

I started playing poker more than 10 years ago. Both then and now I play for fun, but now in addition to fun I also make money and for me it's a nice bonus.

I play poker it is fun at the same time you can earn money while doing it. I play for 1 year now and I think I'm crushing the microstakes. That's where we need to start right?

 

[FIERROS]

I'm playing to built a bankroll.

For the love of poker

I love to play poker. I have lots of fun playing poker but I also love to win money! Playing poker for money is the best of both worlds! Having fun winning money, what more do you want??

 

[daurensdo]

For fun, when you try to gamble for money it gets too nervous

 

[capo1014]

I play for fun but if money is involved I can play competitively.

 

[Pokerpoet2]

I play for fun, always fun, sure money is involved but not as important to me, I can relax when I buy-in because I know my limit's and stay within them, being aware of your limitations and managing your bankroll, gives you the peace of mind to play well and not worry about how much it is costing you.
Even in Live games I stay within my working bankroll and will not risk losing too much money on one game, I then feel more confident in my decisions, play better and have more fun because I am relaxed.
I see too many horror stories of people playing over and above their limits and losing hundreds, sometimes thousands of Dollars in a poker game and lets be honest it is just a Game!
If you can treat it as that, you can start to enjoy it more and have more fun,

When the fun Stops, STOP!

If I played for money, I would have quit a long time ago. I play only for fun.

 

[pontvadasz]

Both. As well as the fun, the challenges, the excitement of the competitions, the money is not the least of the considerations.

 

[blata8ruga]

I can't pick 1, it is a mixture of both for sure. I would say fun comes first though and money is second as a benefit.

 

[ringworm]

I play for money and fun. It's one of my few hobbies that I've actually made money on.

 

[Spielkind]

Im playing Poker as Passion, Love, and try to get rich

 

[Uzbek707]

like poker is played for money, entertainment is another game.

 

[seraxel]

Play for the challenge and the opportunity to improve through study and practice. Money and fun are side effects of following that path well.

 

[kristersb123]

I play mostly for fun because I am not that good enough to make reasonable money from poker, it is a hobby like video games and games like chess etc..
