I started playing online at the age of 35. That was when I got my first computer, was hooked and played regular for about 2 years before I started playing live at the casinos.

I started playing poker at the age of 25, a lot of money was lost during this time, but I'm not discouraged, I hope that I will still hit a big jackpot

I met poker when I was 25 (2011) but only played with fake money and, at 32 (2018) I started playing with real money. (which is totally different)

I was 25 when the poker boom started in 2003. That is when I made my first deposit on party poker. Started with play money then $50 deposit and played my first sit n go for real money.

Pretty close to same. I was 23 in 2003. Working down in FL with a group of guys from WI and we had a good share of tourneys at this large house they were living in. Around 2004 starting playing on a free site/ play site called pokerfatcat and played in tavern tourneys before finding pokerhost and absolute poker for a small bit of time.

I started when I was 18 too.

It was in a friend's house, a home game which went for almost 3 years straight!

memories :)

I started when I was 12, playing against my Great-uncle. I'm now 73, so I've been playing 61 years and still suck at it. :)

I started trying to play poker somewhere at the age of 17 when I saw this game, then I didn’t play and started later after some time I learned the rules well and started to play normally somewhere at 25 and I started to win somewhere in random or in tournaments or somewhere in cash games, you can start playing poker at the age of 16-18, the main thing is to understand the rules and make fewer mistakes and get results from the game as a plus!
