Even though I will win a million dollars, I don't think I'll stop playing poker, it's something I really like.
I like poker because I can win money, the strategy, the adrenaline of getting a final table, but there is something that poker also gives you, it is the opportunity to meet people from other countries, You can form a sincere friendship, learn about their problems, support each other. I have made friends who had babies, and now their children are 10 or 12 years old.
I remember that I had a Colombian friend, I met him maybe 10 years ago, we both played in
partypoker and everestpoker, after a few years he got married, and he stopped playing poker, Recently he wrote to me again and I saw that he already had a daughter who was maybe 12 years old, and he said to me, hey, what about your life? you married? do you still play poker? Then he told me recently I started playing poker again and I won 5K in a tournament, do you want to play a $50 tournament?
I told him, yes, I still play poker, so we started talking about when we met, etc. But I thought it was funny that she still remembers me after all this time. Poker leaves us with friendships, as well as anger over bad Beats runner runner, even here in CC I have met very good people, and we always chat regularly.
I think that's why I will continue playing poker for a long time.
