How Old Were You When You Started Playing Poker?

Douglas Gonzaga · Feb 25, 2018

It was about 6 years ago at the time I was 28, I should have known poker before because it was a passion at first sight and difficult to be without.

28 or 29

I began playing when I turned 18

I always knew the concept behind the order of the hands since I was little, but Hold Em was first learned after I graduated high school. Turning 18 started with house games and eventually turned into my first trip to Chumash Casino in Santa Ynez, CA. It is there that I entered my first Tournament and my rookie luck took 6th place out of 150 veteran players. Needless to say it made my poker head get big a little too fast (if you know what I mean); thus losing many, many times the hard way the following years ahead. It wasn’t until about 10 years later that I actually started thinking/playing more like a pro. Even after all these years I still consider myself more of a novice than intermediate!

I played when I was 8 with my father but never played for real money until I was 18 and was reckless to say the least. Now that I'm 30 many things have changed in my game and as poker is, it is always evolving which has kept me interested in the changes and how to improve my approach and raise my skill level.

It's not hard for me to remember when I discovered pokerstars. It was 10 years ago, that is, in 2008, I was 25 years old.

I started playing penny poker when I was 5/6 with my family. Basically just learned hand rankings. Had no clue of the theory or anything like that. I had a friend who binked a tourney for 20K and I started to see the possibilities. This game is more about studying for a long time and then implementing strategies. Train your brain so to speak...

I started playing Poker when I was teen may be at the age of 12. Once I started playing it without any guidelines, now I follow rules and play it. Poker game can not be ignored once you start it. I love it.
