Maybe the nervous but happy feeling to do something you like and at the same time full of positivity to do the best session of your life?

I feel excited. For me, the game process is primarily a competition in which I want to be the first. Winning is my main motivation, and the first place gives me those positive emotions that are hard to compare with anything.

When I play poker, I feel very focused and go through a lot of emotions. If I have a good hand and lose, I usually feel sad. But if I have a bad hand and win the pot, I feel immensely happy. I can't control my feelings during the poker game. My feelings are always very unstable when I play poker. It depends on whether I will succeed or not.

Don't feel much unless the game is at its end, then I get nervous. 😂

How is poker treated?

Because there are usually days when I feel like I'm not able to win a single hand, even the Aces of ♠️ I lose them???

Hi :)
I feel calm. If I find time to play, it means that I have free time, I'm in a good mood, and therefore I can do my favourite hobby. Poker allows me to distract myself.

Playing poker makes me feel good. I feel bad only when I lost many chips and I was sure I will win pot

I feel a lot of things at the same time hahahaha, concern, anger, happiness, I feel confused not knowing the other person's hand, so it's a whirlpool of feelings that I love

CSince I play for fun I feel light, I think poker shouldn't be taken too seriously.

DIt must be crazy for professional players to have the responsibility of playing seriously, it's almost tense.

M My husband plays and wants to be a professional, I see how tense and stressed he gets when the game doesn't go as he expected... I don't think it should be like that...

MBut that's just my opinion, each player has his own responsibility and plays the way he feels comfortable.

I feel happy when I win, and I try to suppress negative emotions in myself.

I Feel good. It's that feeling of your mind working hard, the veins jumping and you trying to hold it from your opponents.. man, that can be addictive and I don't mean for the $$$ reasons.

I fill in a bit of time with poker but just an odd freeroll or spin and go, I wouldn't lose any sleep if I do poorly.
