My uncle who introduced the game for me, in a family weekend... love at the first sight rsrs.

I really enjoy playing poker because of the nervousness for the uncertainty the game provides.

Pleasure!
exactly, poker is passionate. this messing with all our feelings is something that I have not yet experienced

well, poker makes me realize that life has a meaning for me, I like playing poker not just for the sake of money but for climbing the ladder of success and reaching my goals in the end. I wanna play poker more and more and play in the best casinos in the world and see the world eventually for playing poker all over the world

Hello good, I'll tell you how I discovered Poker xD
It turns out that every weekend we always get together with my friends, and in one of them they brought Poker and I saw it since I did not know how they played.
It caught my attention and I started to watch and the following weekend I sat down to play (always playing for fun) not for money, and that's where I started to like it and realized that I wanted to learn more. Today I play at Pokerstars and want to learn more as I still consider myself a mediocre player.

Hello. I got hooked on the game when the wsop became televised. It looked like a great way to have fun in retirement. Having a statistical working background, I started playing online and continue to enjoy the challenges.

Because it gives me the thrill of dealing with skill, luck, self-control and more at the same time.

Money, the first time I saw poker on TV, there was a championship, a young girl won the main tournament, there was a mountain of money on the table in front of her, that's what I remember, and then I thought I wanted to do the same, so I started playing poker.
POKER has a lot of that, showing the advantages instead of encouraging us to study to be a great champion. more really what calls our attention is the money involved in poker, it has the feeling of being easy

I was introduced to poker by a natural curiosity, although I am not a fan of playing cards. Playing poker is turning from an earning opportunity into a leisure activity, which I am not very happy about.:confused:

Once a friend told me about some small success in poker and I decided to try the Fifty50 tournament where I often managed to get into prizes knowing only the basics of poker and win 1$ where I managed to win 50$ for a long time.

I wanted to win a lot of money so I wouldn't have to work. Unfortunately, it didn't work out. Maybe in the future it will work.

I accidentally got acquainted with poker on the social network VKontakte, I really liked the game, and for a long time I played it for game chips for my own pleasure. But one day the application I was playing in blocked me, after which I registered at PokerStars and started playing for real money.

I like poker because it is a game that requires technique, patience, concentration, etc ...
It is a game that requires the mind. That the psychological makes all the difference.
These characteristics that catch my attention in poker.

It was my little brother who really got me to take an interest to texas holdem. I had played it before and did like it, but watching my brother playing and getting success, was sealing the deal, -a lifelong relationships-, between me and poker.

Chris Moneymaker. This guy changed my approach to poker. Before that, it was fun and recreational, and after that, I take poker seriously and spend a lot of my time doing it.

I never played Texas hold'em before. My friend ask me to download, absolute poker and play with him and friends with play chips. I did download it ,and started playing tables with play chips, also started playing in free rolls . Then the rest was history , started playing real money from winning a free roll. Now I was hooked.

First it caught my attention to see the tournaments on television, when they were the finals of the series and they were broadcast live, the emotion was fascinating, then I began to learn and play in Poker Stars when they were not so greedy and had all series of options for new players, and finally one time I got into the sunday million tournament on PS and was about to break into the top positions believe it or not I made a finger mistake and that sent everything out of control lol. Passion, uncertainty and money are things that attract the attention of any human, it is a monumental game.
