Learned to play poker when I was young. My siblings were significantly older and my parents would yell at them (lol) to let me play when they had their friends over for a Friday night friendly poker game. At first they would all go very easy if I went in with them on a pot, it wasn't long though until I really took to it and it was an all out poker war (hehehe) Not always but often an 8 year old (me) would take their money (an excellent supplement to my allowance) I've been hooked ever since=-)

I've been playing for around 1.5 years. I learned from watching the WSOP on ESPN. I've only started to play online recently for money and I've done quite well!

I have played on and off for about 20 yrs. I am from Texas and we had some really good weekly games. I moved out to Oregon and got away from it. When i got married about four years ago m wife told me that she would never gamble because she was afraid that she would get carried away. Well I did she did we did ....lol now we have a game atleast once a month in our house and i play twice a month with another group of guys and we both play on line just about every day now. We had to buy two computers.....lol thank god we win once in awhile....

Not Manilla???
I am from Australia so I am familliar with Manilla (must use 2 hole cards & has 32 card deck - 7s up- also has beeting on every community card which are turned over one at a time) I used to play about 10 years ago.
So I am on vacation in Vegas one year ago and come accross the card room in the Sands.
Funny thing is, it takes me 2 hours to work out that I am not playin Manilla.
It takes me another 6 hours to lose the $100 I started with and the same amount of time to polish off 8 Miller Originals.
I understand the game a bit better now and no longer don't drink and play anymore.
Though maybe I should - it would hel me with all of the bad beats!
