Message: [QUOTE="zEric7x, post: 2426919, member: 95603"] [B]What drew you to poker? [/B] When I was around 19-20 I gained interest from watching my dad play and him describing the game to me. I had heard of poker before but never had any interest in playing. I thought the rules would be too hard to learn and it the game would be confusing. At first I was really confused and it took me months to learn some basic concepts. It is kind of odd but I actually don’t remember my motivation to play poker. It wasn’t wining money because at first I didn’t think I would play a cash game. I was not inspired by the WSOP either. I honestly don’t remember. [B]Where you a winning/losing player? [/B] I was and still am a losing player sadly for me. [B]Did you play too high for you BR?[/B] No. I only played micro stakes…OK, I did play three sessions in casinos but after losing fast I quickly realized that was a bad idea. I just remember losing my last chips and then getting up and storming out of the room…LOL. [B]Did you disregard everything or moderate it off the bat?[/B] I am confused by this question. If you mean did I care if I lost then yes I did but I didn’t care financially. I just was more annoyed at how I badly was playing. [B]How much did you win/lose in your first month of really getting into it?[/B] I lost around $40 my first time playing for cash. I lost about $200 overall not including the few times I went to a casino. Sadly, the poker trackers do not lie. [B]Last, but not least! What was your FIRST big lesson??[/B] I don’t remember exactly but this [URL="http://www.thepokerbank.com/videos/splitsuit/preflop-planning/"]video[/URL] had a big impact on how I thought about the game. I watched many more of his (Split Suits) videos. [/QUOTE]
