Love him or hate him, CR7’s insane work ethic and discipline made him one of the greatest athletes ever. But what if we took his mindset and applied it to poker? 🤔

Consistency. Preparation. Mental toughness. The same principles that made him a legend on the pitch can definitely be applied into poker game and strategy

Waht do you think?👇

I would differ in my assessment of his mental toughness…l have seen him choke under pressure. He may or may not be a good poker player.

C Ronaldo would want all the attention on him . If he started winning it might work well . but he could begin to pout if his stack went down .

I don't think it will be very comfortable to play poker with your feet.
...and in general, I like his wife better than him.

If he used his vocational skills, mental strength, tactical preparation and game strategy, he would still be a normal poker player, profitable but normal.

Nevertheless, factors such as discipline or patience are extremely important and matter in any business, in any sport, and are, one might say, vital in our personal lives. I think any professional athlete has a better chance of becoming a good poker player thanks primarily to their own discipline, perseverance and patience.

If Ronaldo could transform his skills into poker, he would stand strong. At 40, he's over the hill as a footballer, whereas it's a good age as a poker player. He's made more than a billion from football. I think that he only would play live and probably mostly tournaments.

I agree with you. He would miss the competitive spark and, thus, focus mostly on tournaments...

After every successful all-in on pre-flop, Cristiano Ronaldo would take off his shirt, jump on the poker table and scream “Siuu”! :ROFLMAO: In fact, I don't envision him as a poker player at all. He's too emotional for poker, so he'd be very easy to tilt. ;)

I think every professional poker player has to be disciplined and practice constantly I think cr7 would be a good player because he fits into what a poker player needs to have practical discipline and focus

Also, the characteristics of Cristiano Ronaldo can be applied to any sport. We know that discipline is everything, if the proposed objectives are to be achieved.

I am sure he would be a huge fish. Too much ego and not smart enough.

Ronaldo also enjoys playing poker, so it's no surprise that the Barcelona star has joined his teammate Neymar on Team pokerstars.

If Cristiano Ronaldo played poker, he’d be a beast. His insane work ethic, discipline, and mental toughness would make him a top-tier player.
