I am attracted by the possibility of getting big money
I like the game itself because it is impossible to predict and I am attracted by everything mysterious
3.if you are bored, you can play poker and the time will pass very quickly

I don't like that poker requires a lot of money and I can't control myself
unfair play scares me
3.playing my best game for years and still can't win

3- the way it makes your mind work , probability, slow playing , fast
Play , for me it is like chess , and all the deferent systems that can work

a good thing a good game requires is patience, overcoming challenges and a temper built over a long period of time


I don't like disappointment, too much criticism and poker nonsense

Poker itself isn’t inherently good or bad—it depends on how you approach it. If played with discipline, proper bankroll management, and a healthy mindset, poker can be a great intellectual challenge, a source of entertainment, and even a way to make money. However, if approached recklessly, with poor emotional control or as a form of gambling addiction, it can lead to financial and mental struggles. Like anything, balance and self-awareness are key.

What attracts me to poker:
- unpredictability
- luck factor
- additional income
There is only one thing that scares me off in poker, and that is the need to spend a lot of time playing.

Nothing makes me stay away from poker, I think it only brought me benefits

Good things: fun, chance of winning some money
Bad things: sometimes I feel I've just waste so much time playing, the frustration of bad beats
