Poker is a hobby, it generates some additional income for me, through comments, I have learned to control my emotion, discipline and self-control.

Hobby that I do not need pay for, instead I get paid for my hobby. But it is a hobby I put too much time into, so it is borderline addiction.

for me, poker is primarily a passionate hobby. It is an amazing mental game that challenges my strategic thinking and discipline, rather than a primary source of income. I just love the competitive aspect of it

For me, poker is ultimately just a fun hobby, but it’s always a great feeling when that hobby manages to bring in a little extra cash on the side! :)

It's something I enjoy doing. I have another source of income that allows me to play 6-7 hours a day. For me, it's profitable at my current level. I have a normal life without luxuries, but I live comfortably

Right now is a hobby I can only dedicate a few days a month. I'd like to reach some point where I could be able to play 2-3 times a week, generating at least low incomes from time to time.

For me, poker is mainly a hobby that I really enjoy playing. Additionally, I can also make some extra money from it, so it's a fun combination of entertainment and additional income

I became a very antisocial person, but after that, poker literally became my life, and the good thing is that CardsChat exists with people who look in the same direction as me and we can exchange ideas.

For me, poker is a mix of strategy, psychology, and discipline. I enjoy the challenge of reading opponents and making better decisions over time. I think many gamers like poker because it has competition, skill improvement, and constant learning. For me, it is both a hobby and a way to generate extra income.

I do it as a hobby, but it's true that many times, even if it's a small amount, it gives me some extra income.

I’ll be using it as a purpose in retirement, and something to help me stay mentally sharp.

Something to keep us alive... After all, anger keeps us always alert! hahaha
(just kidding)

Basically, it's a way to have extra income, besides, of course, being a passion... Nobody stays in something so irritating (intriguing and unpredictable) for so long without loving what they do!

It's been just a hobby for a few years now, I play when I have time and feel like it, but lately less and less.

Poker started as entertainment, but over time it became a way to challenge myself mentally and improve my decision-making.
