This year I 48y.o.. I was introduced to poker five years ago. I remember that through the Internet, through which site do not remember. We quickly learned the rules of Texas Hold'em and poker hands. And he began to pour money. I played for the winter, and did not understand why in 90% of cases I lose. I gave up and did not return. Then he studied the basic course of MTT pokerstarsschool.ru became easier, began to understand better, but does not work, all played at a loss. Again he dropped. Now I have a third attempt to learn how to play plus. Somewhere at the end of November 2018 again began to learn to play. I play only freeroll, trying to win a starting bankroll.

Neat post. I technically started at around 7 or 8. My dad taught me 5 card stud and would dump out his coin jar when we would play. Once I got the gist of the game we started with the same amount of coins ( typically about three bucks, pennies, nickels, and dimes ). If I won - I would get to keep the 4 or 6 bucks. If he won - I had to do a chore of his choice.
I really started getting into it at about 15 years old. That's when I would watch it on TV with my friends and started really learning how to play NLHE. That was back when like Chris Moneymaker won the main event. We would stay up for hours on Saturday nights, slamming monster energy drinks and playing $10 SNGs. I eventually graduated to the local 18+ Indian Casino in California, Morongo.
15 years later ( I'm 30 now ) and still get so much joy out of playing. My " professional " days are over but I am bed / couch ridden for the next month or two. Definitely grateful for the millions of hands i've played over the years

Poker age
I really started playing poker in my mid 20s but was introduced to poker in my late teens. Of course I couldn't play more poker because I was underage but I played with family and friends when I was young and am sure that my family let me win sometimes and could definitely know when I had a good hand or not. But if wasn't until my mid to late 20s was when I really started to play poker for real and wanted to learn the ins and outs of poker.
