What do you enjoy more at the table?
1️⃣ Pulling off a perfectly timed bluff
2️⃣ Making a big hero call
3️⃣ Crushing a session financially
4️⃣ Reading an opponent and being 100% right
5️⃣ Or winning a pot without showdown

What I like most is the element of surprise that I sometimes create for my opponents, after which their chips end up in my possession :)

At the poker table, I enjoy the ability to control my emotions and make informed decisions, and the amenities include cleanliness, no smoking, and silence during important decisions.

I think almost everyone whos playing this game for money would prefer to crush a session than have almost anything else happen to them in poker. You can win consistently with top pair, and make bank but its very rare to make bank on a straight or royal flush, more often than not you end up losing more than you would have waiting for it to complete.
When it does hit, its often extremely difficult to get paid.

For me it doesn't matter it I do all the other options if in the end of the day the session was not profitable.

I enjoy winning a tournament and making money, I remember the first time I made a retreat and bought some things, I couldn't believe I did it with poker money, I haven't won a big prize yet but someday it could happen.

Bluffs at FTS are very pleasant... but getting a reading right on the river with a hero call really enchants me but we have to be careful because Field never bluffs River!!!!

Perhaps I would choose the option of reading an opponent and being 100% right.

Hi:)
Every moment at the poker table, from the beginning to the end of the game, is filled with decisions, surprises, and emotions—some joyful, some unpleasant. Ultimately, the decision itself determines these feelings.

Good luck:)

3️⃣ Crushing a session financially

This is not just financial though, it also tells that I'm better!

Numbers 1,2,&4 are basically ridiculous since all they do is boost your ego. I like 3 best of all since I want to get more money. Number 5 is nice and if since it gets me more money without any hassle.

What I like most is making the right decisions. The right decisions I make thanks to my own skills and experience motivate me to continue learning the game and becoming more skilled.
