It started with pacific poker way back in the dial up days. Then went to a series of home poker web sites finally ending up at pokerstars, fulltilt, party poker and ultimate bet poker.
According to an inDIan. Pretty cool brave from Black bear Casino. If you got a 29 hand in cribbage your suppose to have a child. Prolly best to see if God blessed it. "It rolled a 7 or doubles with two dice ""paradice""or aborted". My story to get into poker was. Within the first ten times I played poker for four hours to try it out. I hit a straight flush. I agree you have to poker to get a crib.
I started playing Poker about 2 months B4 Party Poker left the States.I joined and made a min deposit. The first time I won a SnGo and that little confetti thing blew up in the middle of the table , I was hooked lol. I cashed out 200.00 and a couple weeks later they were gone, like a drunk on payday lol. G/L
My father is a Semi-Pro player, so i've almost always been told about poker, his good run and bad run, he gave me some advice, i am playing since 2011, but it's been 2 weeks i try to build myself a good BR
I learned the game basics after watching my parents' family game when I was 6 years old, when I was 15, I started playing with classmates, and now, I am 43 years old, and have a more advanced level of play (usually, lol).
Since I was about seven years old - old enough for my aunt to take my Christmas money and all the Christmas money of my cousins away in full view of the Christmas tree. I'm 71 years old now and I still play although I'm not as much of a fish as I was in those days!
I have been playing online poker for the past 1-2years (been studying for around 6months). Been playing casual live cashgames/MTT's for the past 4 years.
I've been playing almost 18 hours nonstop losing all my effort in the last 5, trying to recover what was not necessary to lose .. so I learned that everything has a limit .. and if you play poker and try to improve every day .. not to be professional, but to improve it so much we love it , learn that sometimes it is not the quantity but the quality at times that we propose in each session .
2 years....
I would say "Poker's a day to learn and a lifetime to master."
New player?? this is for you:
Poker is like life, most people don't learn from their mistakes, they only recognize them."
22 years ago, when I was 13 years old I began playing in my dads home game which consisted of mainly seven card stud variants. I was easy money for the for a few months but I caught on quick, besides I was free rolling on my dads money.
I played for a few months about 8years ago, but I was terrible and lost interest. I've just started playing again a few weeks ago and I'm doing way better than before. I think my age has a lot to do with the change, I'm older and wiser and I can read people better now and I'm sure I'm not as easy to read as I was when I was younger, because I can read people who are younger than me easier than I can read people who are older than me.
