Online poker has helped me a lot to improve myself in the game and to one day become a professional in the area.

How about you? what has poker helped for you?
Hi :)
For me, poker is entertainment. Poker helps me get away from my main job, have fun, relieve stress and get positive emotions. Overall, poker has made my life more interesting and better.

I first started playing poker for money when I was around 18, so it was an amazing feeling to win at SNGs. I guess it boosted my confidence.

I still have positive feelings and memories about poker, although at the moment I exclusively play freerolls. For me, it's a fun activity to do and it doesn't feel like a waste of time as there is a lot of skill involved in the game and you can potentially make money from it. It also makes my life more interesting and adds another dimension to it. Poker is a completely different world.

poker helped me to be more patient in all situations because I have an explosive character and I'm a very hot guy in life, but since I've been playing poker over the years, I've become calmer and more reserved that's what poker has helped me. I hope that in the future I'll become a very calm player and person:)

I have revived my interest in chess. There is plenty of online strategy sites and this has improved my game.
Poker has become humdrum, too many players have improved their skills, fewer fish.

For me, poker is a hobby, thanks to which I always have a good time in my free time and, in addition, receive additional income from the game.

Online poker has given me the opportunity to improve my skills and practice on a daily basis. If I had wanted to play the number of hands I played online in live poker, it would have taken at least twice as much time.
I think we should be grateful and thankful for the Internet and poker rooms.
Many thanks to Cardschat and REPLAYPOKER;)

Poker teaches me math, concentration, discipline and follow-through.
And it gives deep life lessons, like> even if you do averything it depends on you, most of the times that doesn't guarantee winning. Life is rarely fair or even. That is the most valuable lesson.

Poker didn't help me become a professional, but thanks to poker, I got a divorce and now I live alone, play whenever I want and as long as I want. However, now I have to cook my own meals and it's a bit of a struggle, but I'm getting used to it. I think I need a girlfriend who plays too, and then we'd both be hungry :)

I guess instead of watching movies to bide my time, I play poker. It is relaxing and I set the bar pretty low for myself, so I am not upset like I get when I watch 10 movies and only 3 were not a waste of my time.

I find that my experience in online MTT tournaments has sharpened my game over the years. This is experience that one could not possibly expect to get if you were a live player with the exception maybe of living in Vegas.

for me it’s some kind of outlet and killing of time, plus sometimes it brings money, which in our country (war) is not a bad help to survive

Poker gives me the opportunity to earn money for my dream. That's the most important thing for me. Yes, if we are not talking about the material part of poker, I have become more patient, cold-blooded and determined. :unsure:
