What age did you start playing poker?

I messed around in home games in my early 20's which was over 15 years ago, but really knew nothing about the game. Really didn't start learning more than the basics until late 2018.
 
I started playing poker when I was 14. Back then I was playing with my friends. We had no idea of ​​any strategies and just played on it. We bluff, we bet without having seen any real sense behind it. It wasn't until many years later that I became interested in poker strategy. Since then, my game has been completely different. But I think I've gotten better.
 
I was almost 50 years old when I started playing online poker, but I playd draw poker in person since about age 10 (not for money at first).

I started at the age of 30 texas holden
 
I think I started playing it in the womb. Lost my first game and as a result was born prematurely.
 
I didn't start untill around 19 or 20. Never liked the game for some reason. Really got into it with one of my buddies and never looked back lol
 
I've been playing card games since I was a kid, probably since I was 5 years old. But I started playing poker only 4 years ago.
 
I started playing about 5 years ago. My only regret is that I didn't start playing poker earlier.
 
I've been watching the game for many years, but I started playing at the age of 36.
 
I started playing poker when I was about 30 years old. I don't even remember who inspired me to play this game, but I don't regret it.
 
I started playing poker as an adult but somehow this game always caught my attention! In my country (Venezuela) other Spanish card games are more common, but nowadays Poker has entered all corners of the country.
 
It seems to me that the exercise for the mind, which poker gives, will be useful at any age. Great game for all ages. And if it's about a career, then there are plenty of examples of successful players of different ages. On the side of young people - mathematics and great endurance, on the side of older people - tilt stability and experience. I think so. So my answer is - you can start at any age, and finish - as long as you see and can hold the chips in your hands. I started playing at the age of 25.
