Does watching others players have success motivate you to play more?

[Bawse]

Sometimes I lack motivation to play poker, and when I see players I know winning, it gives me the urge to play again.

Do you get motivated when you see your friends winning at poker?

It's difficult as i generally watch the losers more than the winners! With the amounts i bet, i generally don't mind if i win or lose so it's not a big deal.

Love to see friends win. Only real outside motivation I find is when watching a crusher implement something that I'm not successfully.

Whenever i see others winning, it motivates me and I also try to learn from them. It also helps me to keep chasing my own victories.

it may suck when others win while we lose, but i guess we just have to take it with a grain of salt and focus on improving our skills. don't take this too hard—just keep trying till you win!

In most cases, I am motivated seeing others win, which in turn encourages me to work on myself. My way of emulating them is to put my focus on the techniques being used by these players and learn to apply them to my game rather than look at their success.

I love to watch others playing poker. It gives me special thrill. In fact, it give me more thrill to watch players playing poker than playing myself because i know am still amateur. Watching others play makes me feel motivated to learn fast and start playing.

It is possible to succeed when you get motivated by great players. Learning from their strategies and techniques is one of the best ways to improve your own game as well.
