I think not, because poker is a hobby, a pleasure, not an income.

Maybe quit for good no, but definitely I would play lot less. Specially because here in my country a dollar worth 5x our currency, so, it's definitely a very nice amount and if you invest that amount, you only work if you want to.

Bro, when they win the long-awaited million dollars, they don’t quit the game, but on the contrary, they fall in love with it even more. I think such a win will give you confidence in the game, which is sometimes lacking when you lose

I would not give up poker and it would not really change anything in my poker play. I would take the winning and actually be able to retire like a normal person instead of working until 75 or 80 just to hopefully retire.

If I won a million dollars in poker, then I could win more) so why would I quit poker then?)) With the money I won, I would buy real estate and rent it out. Then it would be easier for me to play poker, I would think only about the game, and would not think about where I could get money to buy food or pay for utilities). I went through certain difficulties and life taught me that everything is real, there is no need to rush, the main thing is to believe and go towards your goal.

Money is an opportunity for a person to show himself and others what he really is. For some, a large amount of money instantly makes their head spin, while others perceive it as some kind of accumulation. By how a person manages money, you can understand a lot about his personality. Then I would only play major tournaments.True happiness lies in being able to enjoy little things, to find extraordinary moments in everyday routine.

If I win a million I will play more, much more. This certainly does not mean that I will spend money mindlessly, under no circumstances. But I will play more in order to reach the professional level of the game. A million dollars would be a financial foundation for me.

Absolutely no. I will keep playing, but if I see I'm losing to much I may stop for a while.

No, because this game is not only about money. It is a brilliant mind game, even without money being involved. :)

if I would win that kind of money I would not quit poker, on the contrary I would play more and try to win more.

No, on the contrary, I would dedicate more time to it because it's my passion and with that million I wouldn't have to work on anything else.

Why should we quit? That endorsement could help us establish our brand, and perhaps become an ambassador or create an online course.

We could play at lower limits and dominate the mid-stakes. Save the money, invest in low risk instrument, and enjoy your life.

If I win a million I will definitely quit my job and play more poker. I hate my job, but I have to work because I unfortunately have no other options.

It seems to me that I would hardly have stopped playing poker if I had managed to win a million dollars. Most likely, I would start playing in expensive tournaments, but the main thing here is to keep myself in hand, otherwise a million dollars can quickly run out.
