Poker is a great opportunity to explore your relationship with money.In particular, poker teaches you not to overestimate the role of money in life and to structure your time. You can generally play not for money, including on the Internet.And yet, when the chips have no value, then the strategy of the game changes, the excitement goes away, courage is lost.gambling and luck are the main prerequisites for a painful addiction to poker.The player forever remembers this sweet feeling of luck, strives to relive it again and again and begins to check: did fortune really love him.

At first, poker was like a hobby. But then, when you started winning certain amounts of money and putting in effort to learn, it turned into a profession.

I had access to the net very late, I was already 38 years old.
randomly found poker, made a deposit on PS and lost it within 3 minutes.
I'm still a loser, but I'm still here.

I see it as a mind game, of course luck plays a role as well, but I believe that if you learn and practice enough you can be a good player on the long run.
I don't play for the big wins (though definitely would be happy to have them), I keep on playing because I want to be a good player. Also I like Math, so it might be connected.

Hello everyone, I play poker because I love this game and it's also a way to win a lot of money. If God is with me this year I would like to be a professional.

Because poker combines pleasure with usefulness. Pleasure is the game itself and usefulness is the money you can win.

I also started playing with friends, but what really fascinated me was being able to play online. Being able to play anytime, anywhere is amazing.

Poker for me, is a social element and a bit of fun. The occasional strategy side to it and building up a bankroll.

I started playing poker because I had a lot of free time. I started about 7 years ago. Since then, poker has been my favorite hobby.

I personally started and still play poker for fun, I have not yet considered making poker a daily routine or considering it as a job or even thinking about being a professional one day.
