Your question makes me remember 8 years ago when I started in the world of poker, it all started when I went to a compadre's house and that house had some friends, and those friends were playing poker, at that time I didn't know what It was poker, I only knew it was cards, and from that very day I got excited to play poker, it was all a matter of chance. That's what the world is full of, coincidences.

Many years ago I saw the Italian comedy “The bluff” starring Andriano Celentano. This movie had several episodes about playing poker. I really enjoyed this game. Since then, I've played with friends whenever possible. When I got the opportunity to play online, I play regularly.

I was introduced to the world of poker by one of my sister's boyfriends when I was about 11 years old.

I started playing poker 5 years ago. My friends played often and taught me the basics of the game. Since then I play regularly, 4-5 days a week. Poker is my favorite hobby.

Chris Moneymaker - At the time of Moneymaker's win at the WCOP in Las Vegas, poker was aggressively promoted in germany for the first time. You saw poker all the time on TV! Really so often that, even though you never played the card game, you subliminally internalized the rules of the game and could "gamble" directly when you had cards in your hand.

Once on YouTube, I watched a poker game at the final table of professionals. I became interested in poker and have been playing ever since.

The inspiration was the feat of Chris Moneymaker in 2003.

I worked with a guy and he always played poker on his phone at pokerstars during breaks. It became interesting for me to watch him play, and then I started playing.

I saw the tournament on TV, became interested via the Internet, and independently studied the rules and strategies of the game.
