The first time I played poker on PS, in a GT tournament, I was worried and won nothing.

I played poker for the first time when I was in high school with my colleagues, I had a period of about 2 years in which we gathered and played our pocket money weekly, they rotated from one to another, it was a beautiful time, I bring fondly remember those days, poker was simpler then ... not so many strategies ..

I myself learned to play poker at the age of 16, no one taught me, I discovered the rules of the game on the Internet, and played at home on a laptop, my parents were surprised at my hobby

When you play for fun, everything is more beautiful. When you come back we will say a little more pro, the game is another and your feelings change towards that game that made you so happy as a child. This is life, we should never grow up.

A friend taught me at my home in 2011, downloaded the pokerstars client to my computer, he wrote me poker combinations on a piece of paper and started playing for play chips. Later we learned that there are freerolls, from participation in which you can earn real money to your account:D:):):)

I remember it was a home game with friends. Then I regularly played poker games on my phone for game chips to understand rules and basics better.

I also remember that those nights when I learned to play poker with friends, since we had no chips we used coins for bets, you can't imagine the amount I brought home!

Hello.
I started playing poker at about three years old. My colleague at work often played, and I was also interested. Since then, poker has been my favorite hobby.

My first contact with poker was because I saw it on espn the tournaments that they broadcast and from there I investigated and started playing pokerstars, I remember that at that time I played like 8 double or nothing at the same time that lasted more or less like 40 minutes and he did it continuously during the day to generate points and exchange them for articles:jd4::jd4::jd4::jd4:
