For me it is a hobby. I only play in my spare time.

gambling hobby . but suddenly a million drop out in spin & go and will work on the same day and a more enjoyable hobby . they say that the best job is a hobby

well, not the dependence that's for sure. but sometimes you really want to play, care for the tournaments. just to play)

For me, poker is a hobby. I like to play poker in the evening after work when I have free time.

poker has brought many benefits to my life, i am learning english, making friends, improving my mind in many ways, i can say that it is more than a hobby or simple card game ... poker is a way of life

Hi friend.

I would love to depend on this, but for now it is my hobby and I am doing very well.

Hobby, just playing video games.

Opinion

Of course, poker is addiction. A hobby is collecting stamps and herbariums.

Why not both at the same time?

Poker for me is a hobby, Because I read about Poker, I watch Videos of past games and I can play for free using money I have won in past games, I find it entertaining, and enjoyable and some of the book's I read are not always about strategy or game play, At the moment I am reading Doyle Brusons Biography "Living Legend" which is more about his life playing Poker, not anything to do with Strategy.
Another book I read recently was called "Ghost's at the Table" again has nothing to do with strategy or game play, but it follows the History of Poker from the Wild West day's up to present day, I found it really interesting.
Hobbies are not only Stamp collecting or Coin collecting, a true Hobbyist will try and find almost anything to do with the subject, no matter what it might be, Imagine how much the original deck of cards would be worth, if you had the deck Wild Bill Hickcock was playing with when he was shot dead with the famous Ace's and Eight's hand?
A Hobby is something that interest's you and you spend time enjoying. It doesn't have to be Stamp's, Coin,s or Model Train's. It is a Hobby when the subject matter interest's you and like minded people.
I am lucky enough to make money from my Hobby.

When the fun Stops, STOP!

Certainly a hobby for me.

Lucky_Shark · Sep 9, 2021

Poker is my job. Once there was a hobby, but I always wanted to make money with it and strive for it. Poker has never been an addiction for me.

Garfield52 · Sep 9, 2021

For me I have to say that playing poker is just a way to pass time and have a bit of fun. There is no way I would be dependent on poker. If I feel that happening is the day I close my computer but not before delete my poker site

Since the beginning it was always a hobby for me.

diego farfan · Sep 9, 2021

a bit of both since I would not classify it as dependency since sometimes I cannot play and I do not despair or in bad spells since a dependent person gets very desperate when a bad spell goes through, on the other hand, I take it easy and I I give a break

What is poker for you? Dependency or hobby?

Since I'm not professional and i don't make my money from the game and play occasionally i would say hobby!

19aleks57 · Sep 9, 2021

I think that poker is not an addiction, but an interesting card game.

moularaki · Sep 12, 2021

clearly a hobby

flail1 · Sep 12, 2021

Just a hobby, but if I don't play for a few days then I get the mental shakes (thinking poker, poker, poker) and just have to get into a game for my fix lol

kobra80 · Sep 13, 2021

poker is my favorite hobby and a lot of fun. I play recreationally

ASMautoneJr · Sep 13, 2021

It's fun and addictive, it's needing to play to have fun, but fun is guaranteed !!

HRVATSKIBOGMARS · Sep 13, 2021

Poker is hobby for me. No chance that is addiction. I like to play poker but only for free and talk with my friends without any pressure. That is reason why I enjoy here in our forum.

nimburkx · Sep 13, 2021
