I started playing poker 15 years ago, at first it was for fun and then I got interested in how there were players winning millions in tournaments, so I opened my PS account and started playing more often in 2013 and from there I have learned a lot and I have earned good money... but because of my work I have not dedicated myself to being a professional player.

My husband had been playing since he was a kid. Then he began playing online poker sometime after we married. He played a lot and sometimes it would frustrate me. So then I thought what is all this hubbub about and got him to show me the basics and setup an account on poker stars and that was it, I was hooked. So now we both play pretty much everyday.

A classmate of mine played online poker in one of the IT classes and I immediately liked the game, I wanted to try it myself.
At that time, online poker sites were starting to take off, so there were plenty of options. (Not that there aren't a lot of rooms today, but it seemed somehow more colorful back then). I miss Boss Media sites, I loved them.

I have started playing poker when I was a child. We used to play 5-Cards with Dad and Mum. We were using matches instead of real chips. But it's only 10 years ago that I began to play Holdem online

I started playing poker thinking that I could make money this way. It turned out that making money is not so easy. But I am glad that my character does not allow me to lose much, so at least I did not lose anything.

Most of my friends play poker and I wanted to learn how to play on my own.

I have been playing poker for about four years. I usually play in the evenings when I have free time, for an average of 3-5 hours. Since I became a member of the CardsChat community, my results have greatly improved and I am very grateful to the community for my progress.

I don't remember the year, but I was watching TV and the wsop was on. I've always played cards, but I didn't know poker so I looked it up on the internet and I loved it.

First it was for gambling effect, I like the sensation of winning the money of another’s players, but then I realize you can also lost money this is not very easy at all. So I wanted to win money from player so I decide to train my skills to have more chance of winning 💰 👌🔥

I really liked this game at first sight, I watched all the episodes of the world series of poker and imagined that someday I would be there. Poker is an intelligent and logical game, for me this is a huge plus, and the emotions of winning a tournament are worth a lot.

I personally started and still play poker for fun, I have not yet considered making poker a daily routine or considering it as a job or even thinking about being a professional one day.

I think it's something I'll have to think about very carefully, but at the moment I feel comfortable just playing poker for fun

I saw my friend play, we had just played in company before, but when I started talking to him, he explained to me that there is also poker psychology about how people behave with different cards in their hands, I was very interested and now I'm here)
