I'm just killing my free time playing. But I still hope that someday I get lucky and win a good prize.

I just love playing poker, I think it's the best card game in the world, I play a lot of my free time and that's my hobby, but otherwise it would be nice to make a living out of it, there must be people who work and make a living.

I play for fun, but i really enjoy winning small prizes with freerolls. With this money i bet on football matches again. So i can keep myself very sweet with these hobbies and actually earn nothing at all;).

Both. But my history is like that, I used to play chess and Im really good on it. And I always know how yo play poker but never stop and study, so I thougth that if I play poker with the same way I play chess I could be good and win money with that. Thats why I change.

I play for fun and make a little on the side. I don't mind losing a little bit here and there. Poker is still the cheapest hobby I have ever enjoyed.

But that will probably never happen. The trust in honesty in the poker room is completely lost

I Play poker as one of my purposes in life and focus on the process of preparing/playing tournaments. I give my best effort to focus on finishing 1st in each tournament I play. I have no ambition to make poker my sole source of income and don't really focus on making money while playing. If I win some money I will plan to use it wisely afterwards but while playing I'm sorely focused on winning the tournament. Doing this I find I don't try to just finish in the money so I play more aggressive around the bubbles and at final tables. I never take deals unless it's a live mtt and they wanna give a small amount to the bubble with 16 players left or something. No deals when there's 3-5 players left etc and big pay jumps because I feel I can exploit players wanting to win a little more money and doing this gives me a edge to perhaps take down 1st place.

Is it for fun or money? Often we think it's for one but our actions say something entirely different. If both, how do we balance that?:wavey::D
I play for both reasons, but I don't like it when I lose; Well, I don't get as much money as the fun of earning it.:D

I like the game. It is interesting to plan what movements you are going to do

I always played for fun. With that I accumulated a few dollars, but I never played for profit.
With my friends we played aiming for recognition above profit.

I play poker because the game always gives me pleasure. This is the main reason. Poker is my favorite hobby.

It's depends of my mood.. Sometimes I play because I want to improve my skills, sometimes I want to win something - just as a fact that I more lucky\more skilled as I feel this time. It's good feeling - be winner, be better than somebody, and I think at least 50% of guys who plays games - play for this)

Definitely for fun. I used to play for some extra money but it became to time intensive for the amount I was making. Now if I make money it's just a bonus.
