What always surprises me about poker is that the adrenaline of playing with your money getting higher and higher has no explanation, you always have a great time, and that can never be compared to anything else.

For me, poker is primarily an interesting way to spend my free time. What attracts me to the game the most is my good decisions, which help me to win. If I correctly assess the situation and make the right decision, it is always the most attractive moment of the game for me.

When the opponent (new by) open any cards, its a surprise until discovering they don't know the basics turning hard to read them.

Nothing. You are playing a tournament and you are constantly being moved to another table, players are mindlessly risking all their money on just any cards, and when they see a pair, they go crazy. You have a great opening card, but subsequent cards change the layout completely. It's all just poker. So no matter what someone writes, nothing in poker will surprise me anymore.

Hi :)
The game of poker is unpredictable and it is this unpredictability that attracts me the most. For me, poker is entertainment, which, in addition to enjoying the game, also brings me additional income.

Poker always surprises, especially when you leave your comfort zone and go to a well-known and less explored area.
The game changes completely

People claiming online poker sites don't cheat.
Why would anyone cheat steal unlimited millions of pennies on a .01/.02 game?
Then finding bot rings with hundreds of penny gobblers

They have algorithms to detect cheaters.
No they fkin don't.

casinos don't cheat
Omfg gag me with a spoon plz

How often players make the same mistakes—like calling off stacks with weak hands or bluffing in the worst spots. Poker keeps reminding you that patience pays.
