Poker has always been a special part of my life. My grandfather taught me to play when I was very young. When I think back to my young life most of my memories come from sitting at a table playing poker with all the older people in my family. A lot of these people are now gone so I cherish there memories a lot and thank my grandfather for teaching me and letting me sit down with all the older people. I know I would drive him crazy always singing or making noise but he never cared. Not to mention he would let me win when I was young which I didn't find out about until I was much older and he would woop me bad lol. I think poker is so much more than just another gambling game. Feel free to share who taught you or any cool poker stories you have.
 
Mainly learned myself. It's quite easy around here, as we have slots including video poker around in about every grocery store and kiosk and I have always been good to calculate quickly. Also having lots of background in board games, chess and computer games certainly helps.
 
Interesting story. Poker is a game - him all ages submissive. Each player is experiencing a lot of different feelings. Without online poker sometimes impossible to live. Probably and you in due time teach your grandchildr play poker.

My parents used to play 7 card stud when I was little, I learned the game from watching them, my grandfather helped me get better at math.

Poker has learned to myself. First played on the phone on the candy wrappers and then for real money. To just go all the way with his mind.
 
I get acquainted with poker thanks to my son but learnt it all by myself.
 
I got hooked by watching poker on TV when it seemed like multiple networks started showing Texas Holdem tournaments. Started recognizing many of the players - they became like celebrities. After that I started playing in some friends' garage games and more and more online. Still playing quite a bit online all these years later.

I learned by myself after watching WSOP final. I taught for my family afterwards.
 
My first boss introduced me to Texas Hold Em. I picked it up from there and read a ton of books and then discovered training videos.
 
I taught myself because of my so called friends that would invite me over to play holdem but they would kinda bend the way the game was played like 2 pair beats three of a kind, always to there advantage,so I figured I better learn how to play lol
 
Grandpa was a gambler and so was the father too, and now I. Father taught me to play when I was young(11-12).
