I started in poker during the pandemic, my father had multiple strokes and stayed in bed, this is already 2 years old, I had to take care of him, staying at home and making it impossible for me to work outside, so I decided to invest in poker, I don't earn much, but, okay to survive.

In the beginning, I didn't even know that people make money playing poker. My nephew told me about it and I became interested in poker

What a difficult story. I'm sorry that you found poker in such a regrettable situation as the war. I learned about poker through friends. And I play just for fun, not out of necessity.

Poker just happened to be an interesting card game in which we spent time with friends. Then I started playing poker as hobby and a chance to win some cash)

Hello Alexander.

We have a similar situation, I also had a job (although it did not bring me much money) and due to the war, I also had to look for something else. So far, I've never played poker or even been interested in it. But thanks to my friend Mikhail, I tried to dive into this interesting world.

So we will gradually learn, share our experience and, of course, win. Good luck on the battlefield! ::Cool:
That's for sure))) And good luck to you!!!

There was a lot of hype about the game of poker in my country 10 years ago. We started playing poker at school during breaks and later we even skipped classes and played in a small room. So this started then took over my free time. :D

A friend brought me to poker a long time ago. But then I'm gonna disappear from poker. And now I'm back and playing regularly because I don't have a job. Yes, you can't really play in Odessa Oblast now, the lighting is bad now.
We also have in Zhytomyr (

Reason why I play poker is that I have low paid job,I work 1 more job also but still I dont have money for normal life because my country is poor so I hope that I will get better poker skills or that at least I will get some luck and win some awesome freeroll with great prize funds.

My father played money games at home. It looked exciting. I watched on tv also and then YouTube before I even played. Then played a couple of live games until playing online.

I have been playing poker for about 4-5 years. In general, I have been playing card games since I was a child. I even played cards before I went to school :)
But I admit, poker is by far the best card game.

At first I started playing for fun, but over time I realized that it is a game of calculating and making statistics.

Knowing that it is more a game of skill than luck brought me to poker and seeing that with little investment you can win great prizes. In addition to that I have always liked trying to decipher other people, when they lie and when they tell the truth.

'High Stakes Poker' was my first introduction to poker. Loved the action and drama of the show and characters involved.

Good afternoon everyone, my name is Alexander, I am 31 years old, I am from Ukraine. I make furniture to order. Before the war, everything was fine, there were orders, there was work. I have a daughter Nicole 2.5 years old and my beloved wife Marina. When the war began, the work became much less, no matter how it sounds, and in poker I came for money (((since there are few robots, and the child needs to be fed and dressed!!!
How did you start playing poker?
yes, now we have hard times, money is good, but do you manage to earn it in poker, I'm trying, well, it's very difference (((

Played my fist game at a friends, read up on it pregame and loved the game. I think online winning a big tournament also has its own pull.
