Why do you play poker for money or fun?

Which is the reason why you guys play poker? Money or fun?

fundiver199 · Jun 7, 2021

A combination of both. I am a winning player, and I certainly play to win. But if it was only for money, there would have been more efficient ways for me to earn them, and I am fully aware of that.

I play for fun, and if I win money it is much more fun. If I bust my bankroll then it is no fun, but this wouldn't bring me in financial troubles. Poker for me is a fantastic game and I try to improve my skills to be more succesful, but it will never be a significant part for my income.
The money I need comes from a good job and long term investments.

Hi Biohazard858, and if you are new here, welcome to CC. I receive an SSI check from my disablity, so doing post, and reading other post is about all I do. Then I play poker, which I like very much. I've never thought about poker being fun. It's more like a job to me, so I play for the money. It's more like a love/hate relationship. Anyway, GL to you

Im just trying to build up a bankroll right now. I punted my first $50 of my bankroll. Im not a bad player. It's just that i had poor dicipline and bankroll management skills. I played somewhat out of my depth.

I used to play for fun, now for money

Garfield52 · Jun 7, 2021

I play poker purely for fun. If i happen to win a bit of money then that is a bonus. If I want to make money then I will go get a job somewhere.

ADRI7HO · Jun 7, 2021

Have fun with poker and that you can win with it is just icing on the cake.

suitedsadness · Jun 7, 2021

I play for fun, but I am micro stakes fish, so it is probably a good thing that I am not trying to make money as I would be setting myself up for failure haha.

Lucky River · Jun 7, 2021

I play to get some extra pocket money

PLAYFUL1 · Jun 7, 2021

I play for the fun of it and for relaxation , I try not to get too stressed out

PHX · Jun 7, 2021

I play poker for money.

Aguimonteiro · Jun 9, 2021

I play for fun, but of course, always focusing on winning, playing seriously for it, otherwise it doesn't make much sense!

I play poker for money (meaning real money versus play money), because it's more fun to play for money.

While playing for real money, I make sure I'm playing to have fun.

This is the best way to ensure I'll make money (by not trying to make it).

Thank you for your insight. I appreciate it 🙏🙏

I don't win much, but I play for money for sure. When I lose I get really mad, it wouldn't make sense to play for fun and not for money. But money makes me very happy.

Some years after my first game of poker I realized that it's fun to win.
