It was in 2007, while colleagues in the bank project were playing. I watched and the 2nd time I took part in.

In 2009 I was sleeping over at a my work friends place. He started to play pokerstars and I was watching with intrigue. I created an account and I just remember playing my first freeroll for a chance to win a Lamborghini.

I saw the final table of the World Series on TV and it got me interested.
For several years I have only watched poker. Well, then I tried to play.

This was my experience too! Growing up I had casino games on SNES, but I didn't truly get into poker until I say Chris Moneymaker win the wsop on TV. It's crazy to think how far we've come since then.

Players have become so much more analytical now. They're playing ranges, multi-tabling online, and using poker tracking tech. We've come so far from the days of gut reads and big bluffs.:icon_king

I found out in the student center of the university when I was in the first year of my degree, many times I did not enter classes or laboratories to learn a little more about this hahaha. apart from poker I learned to play ping pong, trick and other card games in college

I learned about poker from the streamer alohadancetv, he plays tournaments and cash a lot. He's not generally the strongest poker player, but he is a lot of fun to watch, he usually has crazy hands and bluffs (42)

I started playing blackjack, because it was popular
Then I started playing texas poker and from there it is history

It was through a broadcast of a tournament on TV, I had no idea how to play until I decided to look for the rules of poker and there began the love for this sport

I found about poker thanks to the Zynga poker on facebook. I remember it was super popular back in the day and everyone is playing it, they did not have MTT's and they still don't have them for some reason . Many years later i found out about Pokerstars and that it is actually possible to play for real money and that there are big tournaments being held online, i got really interested again.

So did you also play this Zynga poker or you aren't as "everyone" ?!?

Hello!

I played on the slot machine for the first time. Then I started playing at home with friends. The gaming machine was not controlled by me and it was a fairly monotonous game. But here I tell you why. It’s been 20 years since I started playing normal play live.

LitPavel · Aug 15, 2020

I watched the game on TV many years ago and found out that you can download the client and play online, before that I thought that only live you can participate in such tournaments)

The TV and I put it into practice with the magic of the Internet.

IntenseHeat · Aug 16, 2020

One of the games I had for my first video game system way back in the day was a casino game. It had blackjack, 5 card draw and stud poker, both 5 and 7 card. I'm not sure who picked out that particular game. But once my father saw me donking out on it, he started giving me a few pointers. Pretty soon the game was no challenge, so I lost interest in it. But whenever anybody wanted to play poker, I always remembered what I had been taught and always did well enough that people were always reluctant to invite me back their games. But I never realized that there was enough money in playing poker to take it really seriously, until the poker boom hit.

dregan · Aug 16, 2020

When I got the Internet, it became possible to watch YouTube. Here on YouTube I saw a poker pro game. After that I got interested in poker.

shibdevvar · Aug 16, 2020

I found poker in Facebook shared by someone of my friends in 2017 who is sharing his poker winning.
That time i don't know anything about poker so slowly i learn and search about how to play poker, hand ranking then i found it's so easy and starting to play free roll tournament and won some money than i search about another poker site, like best poker, signup bonus and where offering freeroll tournament.. and now i am almost a semi pro poker Player.

My husband liked poker little bit but for me it was waist of time. When he teached me to play I found out that palying poker is most interesting game ever and I want to spend all my free time playing

BlackJesus · Aug 16, 2020

It was a coincidence - a friend told me without purpose he plays online poker. Just out of a curiosity I asked him to explain what/how he does that and there it is - I play ever since

Ram41k · Aug 21, 2020

When I was leaving school in 2004, poker was shown on TV with the participation of Ukrainian player Eugene Kachalov, after that I played in Kiev in 2015 with Eugene Kachalov at the same table, while he was still Team Pro Pokerstars
