Is online poker a hobby?

[nachofas]

of course, it´s my preferred hobby, in general hobbies expend a lot of money, in poker can win.

Definitely a hobby and a source of entertainment. However, I am always posting and asking questions on ways in which I can improve my game.

It could be said that poker is a hobby for me, but lately it is becoming everything I think and I am not liking it very much. I am seriously thinking of stopping spending so many hours and playing only on weekends or days when I have tournaments

I get that, dude! When you get into something, it can take over. Do your best to have balance In your life. You will figure it out 👍

 

[jamesbeards]

Definitely a hobby for me great bit of fun even better when winning

Unfortunately, lately-more of a hobby. I don't know what happened to me, but I can't make money. Today my KK again got into QQ and on the river came Q. Maybe I caught a downstreak. (((((

So far it's a hobby, maybe someday i will reach the skill level to make some money from it.

If it is on your mind most of the time.

Even if you are playing for fun, if poker is on your mind constantly and you sacrifice relationships or goals and ambitions or if you start shirking responsibilities then you are probably an addict and should quit immediately. I was addicted to slots and cigarettes .. I quit them both and my life is so much better now. You can do it.

to me is totally a hobby. i really dont play for money. the only times i play for money are with my friends. and even then we dont really spend that much money. really cheap. just to have fun, drink together. so hobby for sure

This is an tricky question. It depend from person to person, for me is an not very much profitable hobby at this moment. However i love to play and i have self control so i know i will sit and play if i have 2 3 hours for playing. Mostly at evening when i finish everything i had to do during the day. But i will not sacrifice my family and relations because of poker.

For me it's a hobby and fun at the afternoon.

Poker

I think for every poker player online poker is more than a hobby. At some point in the life of every player, poker begins to take up too much space and a person becomes obsessed with insanity.

 

[igroksash]

Yes, for me, playing poker is also a hobby.

 

[Crash Burn]

For many I believe it is, but for me it is not.

poker en linea

Hi . for many like me it is a hobby especially now that we are in quarantine. but for many it is a job and they live from poker even if they are not pro

 

[Uncloggie]

I would guess 99% on this site are hobby type players, I doubt Pros go in for freerolls much.

For me its a hobby to see how much free money I can make. I have cashed out a few hundred over the years, more or less all from Freerolls, and maybe a little from low stakes play. Right now I have over $200 built up in bankrolls between 3 rooms.

Maybe one day I will try to turn it into a bigger pile playing for higher stakes...

Cheers !

 

[Chaskyweed05]

Yes, although what also keeps me going is the possibility of earning several dollars

 

[sergey3]

I like to play in my free time. I think this is a hobby. But perhaps in the future this will be an additional income. I hope this community will help me with this. =)

 

[linf]

Yes, poker is a hobby for me. I feel sorry for those people for whom poker is a job

 

[sergey3]

There are players who earn more in one tournament than I have in my entire life. I do not think that they would like to exchange with me)))
P.S. I'm not complaining. Good luck to all in our hobby!)

Hobby

For me it is definitely a hobby. I can't commit the time to get really good. I like to spend a few bucks, low level and have fun.

 

[bigthereal]

what else can it be?
it is definitely a hobby

 

[fruittree]

Only if you are a loser! Yes. If you are a winner over the long haul! It is a part time job!

 

[zrok_ar]

Yes, its a hobby... But somewhere, in the backyard of my mind, lives a hope of being at least a part time job with constant income
