Message: [QUOTE="thwenth1983, post: 7305046, member: 396943"] I started playing poker at the end of 2018 and, since the beginning, I’ve always had good results because I was able to win a little. Right at the start, even without understanding almost anything about the game, I managed to reach the final table and make $67 in a $3.30 tournament on PokerStars. Before that, I had already been playing a lot of Sit & Go, watching videos and learning about ranges — what to play in each position, like UTG, Big Blind, which hands to open, which to shove, which to call. That small amount of study I did at the beginning was already enough for me to be profitable at the micro limits. What motivates me to keep playing poker is the results. Even playing micro limits, I can always make around $30, $40, sometimes $50. I play a lot of Sit & Go, building a small bankroll, and I also enter some tournaments, even knowing they are more risky. I believe that if I didn’t have these results, I probably would have already stopped playing. I see a lot of people getting discouraged and talking about quitting because of this: results. In anything in life it’s like that — if you work in sales and you’re not making a profit, you stop. But if you are making good money, you keep going. Poker is the same. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night to play cash game for fun. I really enjoy playing, I spend hours playing, sometimes more than 10 hours straight. And why? Because I have results, I have profit. It’s not a big profit, but it’s consistent. So, for me, the main motivation to keep playing poker is profit. [/QUOTE]
