Re: Why do you play online poker?
[ QUOTE ]
So for those of you who said you play for the money, what would you do, with respect to online poker, if you suddenly had your net worth multiplied by 1000 tomorrow? (The implication being that your hourly win rate has significantly less utility to you than before.) [/ QUOTE ] Since poker would no longer be needed to pay my bills, I would rarely play online. My friends often invite me over for poker nights. I rarely go because spending an evening doing something I have to do every day isn't as enjoyable as it used to be. Without poker being a necessity it might bring back the fun of home games for me. |

Re: Why do you play online poker?
Money is the only reason I play online. Social aspect of playing a fun card game with (sometimes) cool people or friends is why I play at home games and B&M.
Now take a poll why people quit poker? I'd be willing to bet the number one answer is the same as the answer here. (although mine would be "wife", yes she is making me get a "real job" ) [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |

Re: Why do you play online poker?
Money makes the world go round. Bonuswhoring helps put extra $100 bills in my bank. Every bit helps.
I play online because there are no casino rooms anywhere close. |

I won't vote because I'm not able to select all of the first three options.

Equally between money and entertainment.

Re: Why do you play online poker?
I'm not playing for the thrill of [censored] victory here. I owe rent, alimony, child support. I play for money. My kids eat.
