I'm going on vacation to relax and have fun, and if I have some free time, I'll still play poker....

I definitely wouldn't stop playing poker, I enjoy the game way too much for that 😉 But to win a million, you'd have to play in a level where I don't think I'll ever play. But never say never...

If it's a deal/bet that I can't play poker in order to win 1 million, so yes, I would accept it.

But I wouldn't stop playing voluntarily

Nope not really.
Just do a nice investment where i get a very good return and keep on playing with a bigger roll that can take the swings.

NNo, especially since I play for fun. Of course, money makes the game more serious, but with that money I would have more time to dedicate to it.

I wouldn't quit; I'd keep playing. Maybe I'd play some of the biggest tournaments of the year, like the wsop Main Event.

I don't think I would quit poker. However I would use that prize money to improve on life itself. It would be a dream come true for me to win the poker millions.

If I were so lucky, I would quit my job and devote myself to poker even more intensely and seriously. I definitely wouldn't stop playing poker, I would definitely play even more actively :)

Yep. It's life changing money. It'd just go travel to see the world.

I think oi would most probably use the money to enter poker tournaments world-wide and try to live off of it.

I don't think so. I would probably just keep playing poker because I enjoy it too much. I would probably play a lot of live games and combine it with traveling, seeing how I fare against the pros.

I would change my full time job to part time, use the extra time to train for long distance swimming, and continue playing poker.

Nope . I wouldn't quit . I would keep on playing NLH . Actually I would start playing higher stakes , larger buy ins , my new extended bankroll would allow me safely to do so .

Well, I would invest on therapy for my addiction which might lead to me being able to end poker. Also if I ever would reach to million, I would probably have some sort of mental condition that has allowed me to stand the swings that got me there :D Seriously speaking, I think I would be visiting some casinos around the world. :)

If I won that money, I would continue playing poker, but I would play live events.

I don't think so. If I won a million dollars playing poker, I would withdraw 70% of my winnings and continue playing poker at my usual level with the remaining 30%, with study and discipline.
