It is a hobby for me, too. Wish I could be profitable but so far I am not.

Who are they ?
You ask "Why do they play poker?"
but you don't tell us who THEY are. We will not be able to answer your question until you explain to us who you mean.

For translation, use Google Translate, it translates more or less correctly.

For me it's a hobby and maybe someday something more, for me the attraction is being able to build up a huge bankroll with nothing, the attraction alone is crazy for me, where else can you do that. Maybe I'll never manage to make huge profits, but it would be theoretically possible, the thought alone makes poker so lucrative for me.

Recreational, I know I can't make a living out of poker, but I love to play poker and love to gamble every now and then and, of course, I love to win too!

I've been playing for many years, I've won and lost, I believe I play for fun.
It's a fun hobby

As you can see from the answers, most people play for fun or just to pass the time. I believe that 70% of the players place themselves like this.

Poker is also a hobby for me. My goal is to have fun, but if I'm lucky enough to win money, that's an additional very nice side effect of my hobby :)

in my case, I play poker because it's an extra income for me at the end of a month.

I started to play for hopefully win some money, and travle a bit, I did that and after I stopped playing for several years, found that I did still still have some money left in some of my accounts, started to play again, this time for excercing my head (keeping my brain brain sharp and in focus) but sometimes I still get a bit bored when I play, so now I will try a mix poker with my computer games right now I play Diablo 4, and I normally play a computer game for several years.
I am not very good but there is a lot of stuff to figure out in those games I play, and it keeps me a bit on my toes.

Poker is a hobby for me and in any case I have a good time playing tournaments in the evenings even despite a lot of bad beat, and if it turns out to win something, then it's even better.

Poker used to be my passion and I would play at every opportunity, unfortunately lately I have lost the will to play and when I do, I blow my chips on stupid bluffs, because I don't feel in the mood for playing and I just cannot find that Passion any more,.

they play to someday become a millionaire or a billionaire maybe someone from our forum will someday be lucky to be such a player so that he can say that he was on this forum and became so rich because dreams come true someday and our dream will come true to become a millionaire, at least that's why we play this poker game
