I learned as a teen playing with friends for nickles. We never played holdem back then but we would usually play draw games or seven card stud. It was usually dealers choice so we would get all kinds of variations like acey-ducey-one eyed Jack, High Chicago, Indian, Murder, Queens and little ones and every other game you could think of.

I learned from a cousin of mine I literally teaching the basics of poker. Then I started playing Freerolls at Pokerstars and I realized that was not playing enough to ensure some Spiked . I decided to find out more about the game , and learned some techniques on websites , youtube and twitch of team pros . I still think I have a lot to learn in poker, but this contact with the internet helped me a lot .
Oh , it's a long story . Sit back , relax . :D

You need to use all the opportunities to which you have access. Poker is a system, it is composed of many components as a mosaic. Here and intuition and literature and video and practice, dating chatting with other players, watching the news and just watching the poker championships that were in the past and also much more .. For success in any business you need to forget about laziness and show perseverance, then There will be a result!

for the first time i saw poker tournaments on TV and i loved this game.. then i entered pokerstars and finished their School..
i play poker for fun, so that is enough for me.. if u want to become a professional, u must read much about poker (books, sites, etc.) but remember it wont gгarantee u 100% success..

With the rules of the game in 5-card poker, I saw it in my childhood, when the Internet was not as widespread as it is now. The whole strategy of the game was developed on our own experience. After reading the game of Hold'em, I read only 3 volumes of Dan Harrington on tournament poker, which gave me the basics, and all the further only the experience that I gained during all the games for all the games played.

And I have not learned. And I think that many have not learned. Although they think they know how to play.

I'm in the process of reading "The Theory of Poker". It's helped me a lot.

I have also downloaded and study hand charts. Once I get the basics down I will get more into the math of it. I don't want to overcrowd myself and overthink my plays

I'll tell you a secret - now absolutely all the information is on the Internet, not only about poker) but the main thing is to be able to take this information in practice

My cousin taught me the basics, but really important information about poker I learned on the internet
But no one learns to play poker altogether.
Being a poker player is to be in constant learning

In Russia at that time there was one good TV channel when after 12 hours included poker every day and there they collected tables from all the stars (the name can not be remembered any more) my first excitement in poker went from there :) so I liked that after a month of views I decided to start playing myself: )

I learned the hard way. I went for 7 years not knowing much about the game. I sure wish I had of found Cardschat. Maybe I would not have lost so much and had my ex-wife ready to kill me. Hell I wanted to kick myself in the head.
