Goodnight friend !!
poker for me is a hobby that I am passionate about, I don't believe that one day I will have a bankroll and be safe enough to consider a job.
I'm very happy even when I earn a few cents but I don't lose my peace when I lose.:fight:

Good thing you don't lose your peace.
That goes to show you you're bigger than the game, which is the whole point to me too.

But i still think you should try to win with everything you got in order to feel satisfied by your game.
That's what I do

I try to win, I am satisfied with the victory, but it is just a hobby, but I always try to focus on having a good victory.

Definitely a combination of Passion and Hobby! I enjoy spending time of my day on improving my poker skills - whether it is playing online or learning on YouTube watching professional poker Players, watching Masterclass or reading books About poker.

Even thinking About buying some merch from Pokerstars, such as a cap..:-D

I think that all people can see them in the 3 ways, a hobby is a passion, and as a last resort you can make it your way of income, it is too cool to play poker

I considered poker a passion that payed my bills. Until this whole quarantine happened and I realized it was my sole source of income lol. So I guess over the past 10 years it has slowly become my job.

I consider poker to be a part time job n passion

For me, I consider it a hobby, but I am passionate about it as well, though I haven't been too involved much in playing the last couple of years as I have a much bigger passion in the gym. But now that we have some more time with the current pandemic, I have a little bit more time to play poker, and I intend to. I want to get back into the freeroll club as soon as possible, as those tournaments are always really excellent and well done.

Hi I consider poker a hobby for me. I'm not near good enough to think of it any other way than that. I wouldn't want it to be my job, because then I would most likely hate poker like most people do when they have to go to work. I guess I really like poker and would like to keep it as a hobby for me. To those who have it as a good, I hope you still find it somewhat entertaining as I do.

poker is a job, and a hobby is playing poker with friends with beer

rj_montana · Apr 7, 2020

It's definitely a hobby with an upside, especially through mixing freerolls into the lineup. Judging by the statistics poker would seem to be a hobby for the vast majority of players

sinchirocka · Apr 7, 2020

I consider poker for me as fascinating hobby, and also a good evening spending time

Fernet · Apr 7, 2020

The poker is my passion

Currently it is my passion and hobby, I am dedicating a lot of time, studying a lot and improving my game, obviously I would like it to be a job in the future

MikeDTT · Apr 8, 2020

For me is just a hobby full of passion, not a job at all.

dzsejlo23 · Apr 8, 2020

A szuper póker a hobbim, nyilvánvalóan azt akarom, hogy ne legyen így, de sajnos ez egyelőre nagyon messze van, de remélem, hogy egy nap eljön az időm, amikor minden megváltozik

Bober · Apr 8, 2020

Poker is a hobby for me. I play in my spare time with work and family.
In the future, I want to improve my low-income poker skills.

Bleeis · Apr 10, 2020

I consider it a combination of everything, but depends on each person

BasTid · Apr 10, 2020

Most definitely a Hobby!

I'm not good enough for it to be anything else.
My goal is to get good enough that I can make $50 while maintaining a solid BR!

But I still have a ton to learn, haven't even settling on what format I want to play, cash, SNG or MTT.

WeiserAdler13 · Apr 11, 2020

For me it’s a passion and I really enjoy playing this game

hcuervo · Apr 11, 2020

It starts as a hobby, it becomes passion and with time it becomes a job, but the latter only for the chosen ones

Halilbear1 · Apr 11, 2020

I see poker as a hobby, but hey i just started playing maybe this will become a job for me

Branimir84 · Apr 11, 2020

Its a hobby. Illusions of it becoming a 'job' have long past gone.

if you base your poker play on luck you wont win, mostly there are skill involved.
