I started playing poker 10 years ago, hoping to get rich, but so far nothing is working out.

So seriously, I got interested in poker in 2003 when Chris Moneymaker won the Main Event at the wsop, that was the impulse that continues to this day.

I remember playing hold'em with my dad and brother when I was like 13 years old. But my first hold'em games with real money was when I turned 18.

17 years ago. When I was 20 years old. Without studying or reading anything))))). Now you understand how much I lost, if I had learned at least the basics of poker.

When I was a teenager, probably when I was 15yo. Since them I had some periods where I played poker more often. Recently I returned to play more serious.

I have been playing poker since the age of 5 years old. 5-card draw was my first love. What age did you start playing poker? What type of poker was it?
I started playing at 40 years old.:deal:

I was about 16 years old, I think. Then I saw the first poker tournaments online and the internet was still in an emerging phase. I have mainly continued to play on pokerstars all along.

I was playing 5 cards poker as a child (I think 4-5 y.o.). But it was a different poker - no chips, just get hand, draw and check who win. Then I started holdem when I was about 20.

I began to get acquainted with poker, probably at 16-17, but it was pampering, I just remembered the combinations, and tried to apply them somewhere, apparently against the background of my family's enthusiasm for such a game as preferance. More consciously, he began to play for 20 years, but nevertheless, he began to learn the game only now, at 35 years old..... something like that.

I started playing at 16-17 with my friends after classes sometimes. I knew how to play when I was 12 though.
