If you had one million dollars, what would you play and how long would you have enough money for poker?

[Risto234]

pretty sure in that case i would start grinding these 100.- spin n go type of tournaments ...

 

[RoviP]

I would play on pokerstars, satellites with a buy in of $22 and above.

 

[greenlarrow]

I would play not very expensive tournaments, up to $500 max. I would give the money to all my relatives

 

[Poker Orifice]

It will depend on the person, one would play a million one day and lose everything, the other would not play poker anymore

What about the 'other' who will mostly continue on with what they're presently doing.. not really making any changes as a result of acquiring $1 Million dollars. (obtaining more money would never cause me to quit playing nor would it deviating from good bankroll management (but I'm not going to move up to $5,000 buyin MTT's just because I pick up 200 buyins). I'd most likely find myself playing Low stakes MTT's online with some Mid Stakes on occasion

I disagree, I understand you, but there other realities, in Brazil (any place) with US$1M anyone live like a king.

you wouldn't move?

 

[Gallarado777]

I would continue to play poker and keep my bankroll and everything would be fine, just as I would buy myself something like a private house to live there and enjoy nature and play my favorite poker game, so I hope in the future I will do my best every day and someday I will succeed

If only then would I travel and play poker for fun, and put the rest of the money in the bank at interest

 

[gravii2011]

If I had $1 million, I wouldn't play poker with him, I'd just enjoy life. And I played poker in micro and freeroll tournaments.

This is true. Here in canada you can buy a home (maybe) in the city.

If I had this amount I would play much less poker and never spend that money on poker, specially because here where I live a dollar worth almost 5x our currency, so, if you have this amount here, you only work if you want to.

 

[bullkk]

I would play a game - "Make a millionaire pleasant!"

 

[mara2259]

If I had a million dollars, I probably wouldn't play poker. I don’t expect to be a professional, but for entertainment there are many other ways that are not yet available due to the lack of the above-mentioned amount.

 

[akmost]

Split top 150K in my poker rooms , have some serious coaching , probably I would play some major live tournaments.
The rest of them? Investments and travelling around the world? What else????

 

[ninocabral]

With that money I would play several different buy-ins for an indeterminate amount of time but of course it depends on the person, a person without bankroll management still runs the risk of breaking the bank but with good management I would say it is impossible to break a bank since then.

 

[MK_]

I dunno about everyone else but I'd be on the beach😎👍..

 

[ramdon p358]

With a million dollars I would try to win at least $200 every day on the European roulette that appears in the casino, I have a strategy to win that money every day and I would play at least two or three important tournaments a week

 

[Ruslan L]

It will depend on the person, one would play a million one day and lose everything, the other would not play poker anymore

If I have a million dollars, 10 million or 100 million, I will still continue to play poker. When raising rates, I will be based on my statistics and not on the amount of money in my bank account.

 

[Pokerpoet2]

Hi
I play poker for fun. And therefore, I would invest a million dollars in real estate. And in the evenings, I would continue to play CardsChat freerolls.

You have your priorities right, I would probably do the same thing

 

[Alexey Shley]

Well, if I had a million dollars, I would put limits on the limit first. I would try to play mtt at high limits, and if it didn't work out 10 times, I would probably stop playing poker, it's easier to invest them than to waste them.

 

[speper]

if i hava 1million dollars idont play

 

[RustyRed83]

I'd probably not bother that much with poker, would still treat it as a hobby and still play at the lower levels. I would much rather invest the money into property.

 

[babatunde]

Fun thread. I would probably play some 100 dollar buy-in tournaments and try to have some fun there. Field would definitely be stronger, but fun none the less.

 

[Viking26]

Newer try to get richer fast.. I would play cash game.. With smaller blinds

 

[member401988]

we need to get that million first or does anyone have any suggestions

 

[Poker Orifice]

If I had the Million Dollars $1,000,000.00 I would purchase Cardschat from Nick & I would immediately cancel all of the freerolls!!
Instead we would hold some $3, $5, & $10 buyin tournaments with prizes to play in wsop added to a yearly Leaderboard. The rest of you groveling freerollers who said they'd quit playing poker here in this very thread if they were to obtain $1 milly, I guess will be quitting poker anyways... without the milly (unless of course you buck up to the buyin games)
