Always be responsible only for yourself and never even try to think about who deserves what - in the end everyone will get what they deserve. Every day become the best version of yourself yesterday and you will be happy, even without millions.

Of course I deserve it because they tried and went on this path for so many years and now they get what they have worked for many years in poker. I am very happy for the many players who have become rich thanks to poker because it is their merit that they chose this path and if you think they did not deserve it, then go their long way and try it again

Well, you can see DNegs for example(quite a few other poker vlogers too), how much work and passion he puts into this game- poker is pretty much his entire life and the love for the game didn't disappear even after so many years and/or making so much money from it... ask yourself will it be the same for you, will you still study a lot to improve your game after making 10/ 20/ 50 million just to keep up with the new changes?!(tbh I would probably stop playing after hitting a 'jackpot'); IMO this guys at the top that make a lot of money from different contracts- most of the time put a lot of work into it(lots of years of work and too many hours of grinding to count) and they are also the main reason the game of poker continues to grow at a great pace... so YES they deserve all the rewards they get!

Whether you deserve it or not is not decisive for me. For me it is more important to be happy, yes a lot of money can contribute to that, but there are other factors that influence a happy life.

Yes of course. Professional poker players deserve millions. Professional football players deserve tens of millions. Professional actors deserve hundreds of thousands. Professional plumbers deserve hundreds of dollars. Each of us deserves something, and the amount we have or can receive directly depends on our skills, experience, patience and discipline.

Well I am not sure I am wise enough to judge who deserves or not what he gets ;)
It's a philosophical question :rolleyes:

they deserve the money they win, and those who lose don't deserve the money they lost

If you were to enter the Sunday Storm on Pokerstars for $11 & placed 1st for $12,000. Did you deserve it?

What about the players who entered the WCOOP MainEvent this weekend? Do they deserve the $1 million?

None of the top pros came into the money for free. Your question seems to speak of them as if they're a famous Sports athlete... or Hollywood movie star.

Just as any good worker around the world. I would say that I believe anyone does; the world gave us everything everyone needs, but human kind couldn't learn how to share it.
Idk, thinking about it, nobody deserves millions if is by the cost of others misery.

Yes, of course they deserve. Everyone here knows how difficult is to be a sucessfull poker player, so, if they're able to be on the 0.1% of the players (I'm guessing this number), they deserve to win.

Professional players play in tournaments where prizes amount to millions of dollars. If you are a professional and if you play in a tournament where the prize money is millions of dollars, then if you take the first place, obviously you deserve the main prize, that is, for example, a million dollars :)
.... or I didn't quite understand your question.

Of course they invest in large or strong tournaments, and for a reason they are professionals, so if they play expensive investment tournaments, they deserve millionaire prizes. Just as sometimes they make up to 3 buybacks and lose, at the time they deserve to win.

I don't think so,that they deserve it. For two reasons.The first,that the role of luck is too big.The second is that they don't play against the best poker players,but who has money to play.

Serious? Do you want judgmental opinions about how much people should or shouldn't earn for their skills?

I think he deserves all that money because reaching that level requires a lot of time and dedication to have those achievements. So if they really deserve it.
