I consider poker a passion, at first I took it as a simple hobie, but little by little I liked it more and more to the point that I began to want to be a better player, and not only for making money but for the fact that it keeps you with the Mind wakes up and helps you control yourself emotionally in many ways, and if poker is not passionate about a professional gamer, then it is nothing.

Hello, I consider that poker is a passion and at the same time a hobby, very entertaining with many mathematics and that definitely attracts me.

Definitely a hobby.

No matter how good you are there is still an element of luck involved.

Little bit of all 3

I quit my job 2 years ago and my bankroll isn't growing yet. I find I do so well online with cash games and then get a super cooler and lose my stack.
Even with being on a bad 2 year run I still love and enjoy the game.
Variance is nice when it's in my favor not so much when my Aces get cracked. Lol:eek:

distraction is all it is..

After your straight to the Ace is swamped by the flush, on the river, loser, you see poker for what it is: a distraction. If you have money sunk into it, it can be an expensive distraction. But if you play within your means, it's a good way to be entertained.

depending on how skilled and lucky it can be any of the above mentioned. if you are a type of person who can withstand a lot of drawbacks or setbacks and learn from them - only then can you do it professionally.

Passion. I grew up at the harness racetracks. My father was the largest stable in town. In the drivers room, before, after, and in between races was always a poker game. You do learn quick against professional gamblers. 50 years later....nothing has changed!

Hi, I like to play poker a lot, but I don't consider it a passion, I consider it as a hobby, I play every day, and if I earn money doing something that I like, that's fine, I play poker, while I work on my computer, so that works for me.

For me just a hobby, if it became something more serious, I believe it would no longer be pleasant.

I am an avid poker player. I love playing it and I do it with love. I consider poker a hobby that grows into a huge passion for me. And I would like it to become a job for me in time, which I would enjoy.
