Be honest: Do you study to be a better poker player? or just play for fun?

I don't really study poker anymore if I'm being honest. However, I keep an open mind because no matter how good, or experienced of a player you are, you can always learn how to improve/fix leaks.

I play for fun, but I always try to win. I set goals for myself, and I try to achieve them. I study my own gameplay, if I feel I'm playing poorly, I'll take a break, and make some adjustments.

How about you? Do you study poker to become a better player?
 
I don't open training courses very often anymore. I receive a lot of emails with bite sized info. If something interests me I often go down a rabbit hole.

I am in a small group on Facebook messenger with some of the best players I know so often we dig into strategy. Lastly I have one friend whom I email with regularly as he has been studying GTO for a few years. Seems there's always something to keep me engaged.
 
Let's be honest, no one likes to lose everytime, even if they are 'playing for fun'. So let's say I study about poker to become a better player, and also have fun while at it!
 
Well, poker is not only for skill improvements but also for enjoyment. In that vein, I play to improve and also have some fun too. Poker could be used as a relaxation game. Perhaps, I can improve my skills through tutorials..
