At first I had no idea what poker was, although I saw people playing it, I still thought they were gambling. It wasn't until later that I found out that it was an incredibly exciting sport. And it was idol tom dwan who gave me the bluff passion for this sport

Family and friends from a very young age. We were always playing some kinda card game, crib/board game or something with cards eventually turned into poker.

Cheers!!!

I also didn't know poker before until I saw my colleague at work play the game during the break. I asked him what kind of game it was and he told me more about it. About four years have passed since then and I've been playing all this time and even having some success...

Mostly friends at school. Once I heard more about poker, I started researching more and found poker forums, then freerolls, then PokerStrategy. Rest is history. :)

My father introduced me to the game when younger and he then introduced me to pokerstars later in life.

My dad introduced me to poker as a child. He sometimes played on PokerStars and I really enjoyed watching and sometimes even playing.

job, started working in a casino when there were no poker tournaments in our country, then they showed up and taught us, although I myself was quite skeptical, but in vain - I missed the golden times

My boyfriend has been playing poker for more than 15 years. From a very young age, and about 5 years ago, he taught me and I never stopped playing.

I knew about poker that it exists but I didn't even imagine the rules, 5 years ago, just in December, a friend told me that I was playing 888poker and since that time I began to comprehend this amazing sometimes harsh and unfair game.

My father and uncle taught me at a very early age, cash game at that, stud poker mostly. I've played steady pretty much since then. I only heard of Texas hold em twenty some years ago maybe, on TV. My father in his 80's does not play anymore, but he does watch WTP and Poker After Dark with interest.

My introduction to poker came courtesy of my father, who showed me the ropes when I was little. From watching their games to taking more formal lessons, poker became a shared tradition. As I grew older, my interest intensified, leading me to study the game more deeply on my own. Although I have dedicated time to learning, I always feel that there is more to discover in this exciting world of cards and strategies.

In the beginning I used to play poker with my friends on real money, but prize pool was max. 1$ :D
After couple of months we wanted to play online cause one of us was sick and had to sit in his house.
That's how I'm here :)
