Love of the game first and foremost. Yet, I am now on a fixed income, and want/need to supplement it.

Lots of things can motivate you. I,m sure that most of the people is motivated by the money. But i also know some kind of people who just love to win tournaments. Some of them are dreaming of big wins in live tournaments and of course of the fame and glory. This is their motivation.
I think most of the normal people just want to play some poker after the job and win sometimes.

Playing poker for money not only motivates me but, also captivates me.

Motivation to play?

My motivation in poker comes from the game's own competitiveness.
Finding better players just makes me more competitive.

I think that you need to be in the correct mindframe to play well at poker, if you are positive and confident you will do very well

I always liked card games and I'm always trying to improve at them. There is just so much thinking and that makes attractive to me. Especially at poker there are so much things to think about - from playing the best as you can with your cards to playing the best as you can from reads of your opponents. I'm striving for improvement and that is my motivation.

motivation in the game. the mental challenge of assessing your hand and your fellow players. what's your end game? why are you playing? that should be your motivation.

Want motivation to play poker ??? Money is yours motivation , if winning is already motivated, when we lose we think that we lose because we are not motivated enough to win.
When we lose we must be motivated to win and reverse our results, many players do this by insisting on the error, instead of stopping ...
That mistake leads to bigger losses, so we should rather be motivated to play, but we must have control of when we should stopped, this is the difference of a prepared player and an inexperienced beginner.

Motive? Are you not motivated? Want a little tissue to wipe those tears? Don't want to get successful? Want to be the loser kid of your family? Pathetic.

I simply wish to play poker, and motivation is not a large win but mostly for fun

I do not need motivation. I do not want to earn poker, I just like the game.

I really just like playing poker, there's not such as a financial motivation.
Probably this way I don't get the best outcames, but it's really my hobby.
A good way to enjoy my free time, and sometimes get some money too :D

Every time I lose, I remember this phrase. "Raise again and again until lambs became lions"
