SUMMARY:

Human relations, such as the world of work, constitute a phenomenon widely investigated in history. Current literature broadly portrays the construction of meaning about the phenomenon of work, from ancient civilizations to postmodern society. In this sense, the field of psychology stands out as a line of scientific knowledge that contributes significantly to understandings about human behavior and its work relationships. In the contemporary perspective, new work models are taking shape and enabling new forms of relationship between pleasure activities and work and income practices. In the meantime, the game of poker has been standing out in recent years as one of those possibilities of associating a practice, previously considered as a leisure activity, to a field of professionalization and income.
