Poker is like wine. You can drink it without getting drunk, and he can drink you and you become a toy in his hand.

Poker has always been a game of chance, which is banned again and again in some way due to various interests.... Obviously it causes a lot of stress, and the financial part is also dangerous....

The lion cannot protect himself from traps, and the fox cannot defend himself from wolves. One must therefore be a fox to recognize traps, and a lion to frighten wolves.

It is an addiction.
Can lift you to the skies and also can be dangerous like any addiction if one cannot control himself

You have to be wickedly clever and cunning at the same time,then maybe there will be success!
Yes, absolutely! We need to clearly understand what we want to get out of the tournament - winning it, or just having a good time. We should do everything to take away as many chips as possible as quickly as possible without serious risk, so that we can feel comfortable when the blinds start to grow. :unsure:

I love the rush. Full of ups and downs, mentally and physically. Can give you energy, can take it away.
This game is great.

Poker is only for intelligent people, they are the ones who achieve great economic results. That's why there are fish and sharks on the tables.

I believe that poker is for a few just like any other sport, everyone can play but few will be successful in the long term where their profitability is greater in the eyes.

poker is a quiet game, you just don't have to give in to emotions and be a calm player because a calm player always makes the best decisions. Sometimes poker decisions are difficult, but you still need to make peace of mind and not give in to the excitement then you will succeed in poker

Hi :)
"Poker is not a calm game, but blood from the first second!"
.......... this is especially noticeable considering your playing style, the all-in bingo style :)

You have to be patient, persistent, disciplined, and don't play with junk :)
That's when poker can bring in income.
In order to win the lottery, you don't need to live a healthy lifestyle, or have a high IQ, or know how to cook, you just need to regularly buy a lottery ticket.

It depends on what kind of poker you play and the buy-in price... there are some styles that are calmer than others.

I believe that in order to be a successful player, you need to be confident and know well what you are doing. Of course, there is tension in poker, as in any other game that involves excitement and competition. You just need to learn how to manage this tension and your emotions. In general, poker is a very interesting game from a strategic point of view. I once heard the expression that poker is equated to chess. I think there is some truth to this, in order to be a good poker player, you need to be able to think well a few steps ahead.

I think basically everything depends on the temperament of the player and his playing style. If you play adequately, you have your own clear strategy and this strategy is well combined with your temperament, then the game will be comfortable for you and will bring you pleasure and money :)

Yes, perhaps poker is a ruthless game, in order to win, you can't feel sorry for yourself or your opponents, you can't give in to emotions, only cold calculation and calmness.

Yep,100% ! Poker isn't just about cards and chips; it's a high-stakes adrenaline rush from the get-go, where every decision feels like a battle for survival.

Of course, poker is chaotic and unpredictable, and people don't always get what they deserve. This is unfair, unreasonable and wrong. May be. However, following such fatalistic thinking in life only makes things worse, not better.Bad things happen to everyone, it's true, but some people deal with them better than others.The last category of people, ironically, do not realize or simply cannot appreciate even those cases when they are really lucky.
What people call luck is essentially chance - positive or negative.

An interesting view. It's true, you need to be strong to keep your calm in poker, especially over the long run. You could easily start chasing your losses when you are having a bad run of cards.

I didn't think of poker as an emotional game before and there is the stereotype of "poker face", but in reality, behind the mask, you do have to be cunning and hide your true colours.
