Because it makes me happy when I win. And I even make money with it.

as long as I see the opportunity to make a fortune out of nothing, it gives me an impulse to play

play poker for the enjoyment and the stress, It's great when it all runs well but as any poker player knows that comes and goes with the time. I mostly like getting thru the rough times and coming up on top.

Everyone starts for fun and then only thinks about profit.

I've been playing poker for 4 years! And to be honest, I still believe that someday I will be able to reach heights in this difficult game. Although I don't spend 14 hours playing the game as before, I still play and have the desire and ambition for this game. You may not be able to reach the heights in poker, but it's worth a try.

A combination of both. I enjoy the game, as well as the challenge to potentially win.

You must believe to receive. I played to win regardless of the odds against myself and every other player. Having fluked 15% win rate, it tends to keep the flame burning brightly. Love the challenge.

Entirely for fun.
I'm not chasing dreams or fantasy's.
I dont have much in life and expect to cross the finish line in much the same way. Hopefully a bit better but there are no guarantees in life.
A realist, without a dream or any serious hopes to obliterate the opposition; even by fluke. We're all different I realize, and therein lies the beauty of life, and thus the game. I have no expectations, though I live in hope.

Best is both, tho without entertainment it's a really bad choice of earning money.

I still play poker just for fun. I don't play often, but whenever I can I play.

If I play too often I end up getting bored and stop playing for months.

Of course, profit is my main goal, but nevertheless, the enjoyment of the game is also a good motivation. If I make good decisions, I still enjoy the game regardless of whether I win money or lose. For me personally, the most important thing is to play correctly, thoughtfully, without haste, without impulsive decisions.

Just like the vast majority of players do - for money.

While playing poker, you can have a good free time in the evening, and sometimes it turns out to earn something, that's why I play, and there is no desire to quit playing poker in the near future.

Poker have a big part in my life since a long time ago, so i couldnt imagine my life without it. I cant get any of those feelings in any other game. So yeah, i enjoy poker so much, that money isnt a big deal.
