I'm just an amateur who usually plays live once a week or so, online rarely, and goes to Vegas once or twice a year. I enjoy playing, don't take it too seriously, and like to play games in general (chess, video games, other board games). I like guy's poker night where we play for $10 or whatever just as much or even more than my usual 1-2NL or 2-5NL game. It gives me some pocket money when I need it or the chance to treat my friends if I want to....without having to worry about it as far as the household finances go. I'm newly married, no kids yet....so I'm trying to play poker regularly while I can before kids come. I kind of see poker as a fun second job where I can come and go as I please. But yeah, it eventually does come down to money because if I lost more than I won, I wouldn't enjoy it nearly as much.

Money, freedom, no need to keep a set schedule, yada yada.

Currently saving up for an apartment though, so that's a nice goal to work towards.

only for the monies

to feel something

To have stuff to rub on my titties.

retirement, early, to play golf on a faaast greens

money fo sho

To help those in need in 3rd world countries.

because i'm addicted to it.

because its too easy

justforfunds

pays pretty damn decent and I really do enjoy this game. Wouldn't be still playing if I didn't truly love this game.

same, i like the game a lot, if i didn't i wouldn't play it because i dont think money is worth being bored or unhappy with what u are doing, esp something like poker that u have to do A LOT if you wanna be succesful

I also don't want that normal life most people go for, I wanna eventually be able to travel, so poker's perfect for that!

For the thrill of victory

I don't. I found out I suck at poker (well, I'm not good enough to make the money I'd like to) so I've set out into the world to find a fulfilling career and I am now working towards obtaining that. Once I have said career (Law Enforcement) I can do it until I die for all I care.
