Poker has mostly helped me develop patience and mental strength. Dealing with bad beats or losing to weaker players has taught me not to tilt and to keep playing the same way, even after frustrating losses.

On the downside, it definitely takes up a lot of time. There are sessions where you invest many hours and it can feel pointless when you don’t cash or when results are bad. So while poker has improved my mindset in many ways, it also requires careful balance to make sure it doesn’t take over too much of my daily life.

No way, if I have time and the mood, I'll play as long as I want.

Poker teaches you to analyze risks and rewards when you don't have complete information that is directly applicable to your business and career

Poker definitely affects my daily routine more than I’d like. I don’t play when the kids are around, so I usually wait until after 10 PM when they go to sleep - but that’s also time I should spend with my wife. So I often end up playing after midnight, which means less sleep before work, while the kids wake up early for school and kindergarten. Over time, the lack of sleep and family frustration really starts to add up.

I'm going through a deep downturn right now, mainly due to cash games in real matches.

Poker improves my focus, patience, and decision-making skills. It also teaches discipline and emotional control. However, it’s important to balance it with other responsibilities and not let it interfere with daily life.

Sometimes when I have an important poker tournament in the evening, all my thoughts are about this event during the day, and sometimes I have to take time off from work for this.

I spend not anymore too much time on poker like years ago. I'm not profi and I don't be one in the future. Its better thus way. I still play but not every day and not so many hours per week.

The most important thing now is to put yourself first, love yourself for who you are, and figure out what areas you want to improve in.It is a game that can bring very little profit or even losses, even if you play very, very well and spend a lot of time studying.
