My dad introduced me to online poker back in 2012. I really liked the game right away, but after that, due to my studies and other circumstances, I forgot about poker for a long time. But now I decided to play again and have been playing for the last six months and have no plans to stop!

Reactions: Poker Orifice
Hello. I started playing online poker around 2008, at that time there was a popular site called VKontakte and there was an application called PokerShark, so I started with that. I was very surprised when I recently talked to people I knew and found out that they also started their poker journey with this application, because 15 years have passed since then. About a year passed and in 2009 I went to a live poker club for the first time and started playing live poker, at the same time I registered at PokerStars. Officially I started playing poker 14 years ago, both live and online. I am from the CIS) I live in the south of Ukraine.

I've been playing online poker for over 12 years and I'm from Ukraine 🙂
 
I'm also from Ukraine and have been playing poker for 4 years.
 
I've been playing for a long time, and I don't remember it myself anymore. But there were pauses, the biggest in almost 2 years.
 
Online specifically? 🤔 Barrelling towards eight years now... Played live and recreationally for more than twenty though, gosh the time really does whizz by in the blink of an eye and now find myself occupying the body of an adult like Tom Hanks in the movie Big... 😱

Just have to find a toy company or suchlike to give me upper managment $$$,$$$ job naow..! 🤣

Knew I shouldn't have played that coin-operated genie machine. 🤦‍♂️
 
The first time I played poker online was about 15 years ago. Back then I played on Poker Stars, PartyPoker and 888, which is still available today. I played on Full Tilt too. And I played one that I loved, which was PKR Poker 3D. This had to be online today. I stopped playing for a long time, because of work. I started playing again probably 2 years ago.
 
Around 15 years ago we started playing holdem poker with friends, it wasn't as well known in Argentina at that time.
 
I have been playing quite a while. I lost a nice bankroll on Absolute Poker when online gambling laws changed. So that was probably mid 2000’s. Just started playing again a few years ago off and on but now due to my health and lifestyle changes I am starting to play quite a bit now.

Stay Safe

I have been playing poker for about 6 years. For the last 4 years I have been regularly increasing my bankroll, but this is primarily because I am a member of our wonderful community. Without CardsChat, I would not have had these results.
My name is Mykhailo and I'm from Ukraine 🙂
 
I started playing poker regularly for about 10 months, I can only say I've tried it before, but here's the CIS, I'm from Ukraine.
 
For over 12 years I started with Pokerstas and now I sit in 4 rooms with a total of 888 and there I am a little more lucky than in the other rooms
 
I signed up for poker in 2017 and started playing at the end of 2021.
 
I've been in poker for 5 years, and this mental sport has brought me joy, uncertainty, happiness, and even frustration (sometimes all of these emotions in a single hand). But over all these years, I've learned to be more patient and to control my emotions. It has been a good psychologist for me in terms of the game. If you want to progress and elevate your level, you absolutely must study in a school or in a didactic manner.
