Played 5 card draw poker as a kid. Then nothing for years. Last year I started occasionally playing Hold 'em at Yahoo for fun. And about two weeks ago I decided to start playing "properly", and have been checking out some different sites.

Pretty much my road, Dealers Choice in the garage, draw, stud, lots of wild cards... I had forgot Yahoo, but that is where I got my feet wet in Hold em. Deposited @ PartyPoker and (hardly)(n)ever looked back.

Was away traveling in australia & a couple of lads i met took me to the crown casino in melbourn, that gave me a taster so when i got back home started playing small torneys in local casino, i thaught it was great what a buzz when u pick the game up & start winning a little more regularly... all those chips & noises that make up a live game u just cant beat it!!
