Poker is an amazing game, but poker should only be played for money, otherwise the game simply loses its meaning and charm.

Poker is a very interesting game and it shows the skills that you can have, but we all know that anything that involves winning money always makes it more motivating and attractive.

Sure, why not? I didn't start playing poker with money either, but with play money. If the game hadn't convinced me, it would never have come to the point of playing for money.
Of course it's true that playing poker for money has an additional appeal that you don't want to do without anymore!

while playing poker for money is exciting because money is involved and after winning hands and session you feel happy and great but if it wasn't about money i would still go for it because it's so much fun

It's difficult to answer this question precisely; it reminds me of card games played just for fun, which were quite enjoyable as well.

Skating for 10 hours without stopping and an indifferent attitude towards the state of health at the time of the game is what no one pays attention to.But there is not much point in spending too much time at virtual tables with play chips. Not only are your opponents completely incapable of showing an interesting game, even after filling millions of candy wrappers, it is impossible to withdraw them by exchanging them for real money.

Poker without money is no good man. It could be something other than money but it has to hurt when your loose and feel good when you win.

I've tried playing Texas Hold'em without any actual risk such as money, and it's no fun at all. Betting is integral to Hold'em.

No, definitely.
The money I win is essentially a reflection of my efficiency and productivity. Money is a reward for my skills, experience, patience and luck. I think if poker wasn't a game for money, I just wouldn't play.

I honestly dont think it would change how I feel about the game. I love playing poker and card games in general.

Without money, the game of poker would become a children's monopoly.:)

If the game wasn't about money, then the game wouldn't be exciting......if there's no stake, then there's nothing to lose, so the game would become uninteresting to me.

Without money, the interest in the game is not so great, but poker is still an interesting card game:)

For me as a card game it is the best in the world. But I would lose some adrenaline maybe I would say if it didn't involve money.

The game is the most interesting I've played to date, however I've been trying to imagine what it would be like if there was no money involved in its nature, but I say that as if it was created without the money involved, as if we didn't know it in this format with cash prizes. would it be so interesting? I think that money is a component of poker, and without it a lot of factors would change, and it would lose some of its meaning.
I played poker for virtual money with the same interest as if it were real.

I think it would be a good game, though maybe not a spectacular one. The truth is, it's a very important factor, and without money involved, the bets wouldn't carry much weight. I'm not sure if you've ever played with people who play for symbolic chips, it's very difficult for it to be structured. I think the problem would lie in it not being taken as seriously.

It's quite simple, while all players throw the chips up, without pressure or interest in running a game that makes any sense. It's like a bingo, only the envious of choosing the card you choose the cards. Wow what a fun game! Poker like this is better to play roulette.

Poker without money would be without the feelings that lead us to it. It will be like other puzzle games.

I started playing play money poker on social networks and played for about 7-8 years for play money just because I liked the game :) So the money I win in poker is a nice bonus to my favorite game for me !!!
