As a grinder, I'm sure most people would not enjoy playing as many hands as I do. Others would bore at the monotony of the game, and as a result make some horrible decisions because of the boredom. I, though in a sick and twisted way, actually enjoy the grind. I enjoy putting hands in, and, of course, the expected financial returns that accompany it.
There is something about myself that I just enjoy about moving up the stakes and the extra challenges that accompany each step up. I also get satisfaction in just building my bankroll exponentially. I believe if I ever played some massively-multiplayer RPG (like WOW), I would be one of those junkies that plays for 48 hours straight. Luckily though, poker is not as addicting as that. If it was, I might never venture outdoors.
