I'm playing as recreation, but my dream is to be a pro. I'd love to start earning money so I could quit my job and play full time. It would be great to travel to tournaments & actually win money

There is a lot of honesty ITT. This has been the best hobby that I have fallen into. Keep the dreams alive folks!

Poker is my dream, I want to be able to build a bankroll and manage it successfully. My biggest weakness must be bankroll management.

Since I've been on here I have gotten better with all the advice so far.

Thanks guys!

Going full Monte recreational player no matter who I beat what I take down if anybody or anything ever! Makes the intended insult even more damaging. I sure earned giving it of it happens after all the losing and million teeny heartbreaks. :D

I want to play full time but I cant. I dont have that much time. I played poker just less than a year. Still learning and improving poker skills.

I play poker as a recreational player. For me, it's a great way to spend time and improve my poker game.

Semi-pro. Learned to play to win not play to make money. $5 tournaments or $500,000 play them the same.

Right now I am more recreational player, but I am trying to transition to semi-pro. Just trying to work on getting more time, money and learning more to do so.

I've been playing for six years with little breaks . I would like to make a poker career for myself, alas it does not work . I think this simply cannot be learned, some qualities of a professional player should be from birth.

I think that every player, which 2010 in this forum, seeks to professionalism. Those who write that play for fun,and even money,are fooling themselves. Otherwise, what would they do here? Why learn something? Well, play on the conditional chips. Or do you, fans like to lose their money for fun?

Nice poll, but only one question: It asks "as a CC member", so what you're questioning is how do we play after being a member, or as long as we remember playing poker?

I could be a pro if I want, but

I am really the greatest in the world, but I just like to lay low and play recreationally, since money has no meaning to me and I don't want to intimidate people.

So in summary, I'm a lousy player with delusions of grandeur and only play for fun. :)
