How old were you when you started playing poker?

[Lutring87]

I was 10 when I first played poker besides (Rummy, Hungarian Kuki) and other card games.

I started studying poker at the age of 15, playing poker on one social network for shareware. When I was 18, I enrolled in pokerstars and started playing online poker for money.

Exactly 10 years ago, I first got acquainted with this game. I was 43 years old then. I play only for my own pleasure, I didn’t even dream of becoming a professional.

About 15 years ago I started playing the conditional chips. Then he moved on to real money. I lost 2 or 3 of the deposit and started playing again 6 months ago. Now I am playing freerolls and micro stakes.

I think I was around 10 or 11 years old when I learned to play. I'm 29 now so I've been playing for about 18 years. Ever since I learned to play I've loved the game. I've always been a huge fan of card games.

Around 10-12. I had no idea what has poker been until a summer camp when the game literally found me. And as a kid, this fun turn into passion as time went on, so I loved it from that day.

Hmm... a good question and a good test for my poor memory.
The very first time I ever played poker was against computer, as a video game.
It had been running under DOS yet. And it was a 5-card draw poker. I was like 8 years old or something and thought: "Bah! What a boring card game for the old people! Better delete it right away and install some car racing or adventure game!" :hahaha:

But as I turned 20, I found another kind of poker - No Limit Hold Em. And the world of poker, as adult. And I felt in love with it and been totally fascinated from the first days, as I saw it. And it still remains over 13 years one of my biggest passion and my most favorite game indeed.

I hope, that even more people recognize, what a great game it is! And also do recognize that it's a mental sport game and not just "gambling" and pay it more respect, as they do to chess, even if they not playing it. Because poker really deserves to be respected! Long live poker!

I learned to play poker when i was 15 and then created an account on pokerstars. I haven't played online for years until corona started. Before that, it was always in the casino or with friends.

 

[paisley]

I learned to play poker when I was very young. My parents were born in the 1930s. So they liked to play a lot of card games, and board games too. I think 5 card draw was all they knew though. Later in my teens I played once in a while with friends. I started playing online poker around 2004 I think. It was around the time Chris Moneymaker had won the wsop.

 

[sightgasm]

I started playing poker in 2009 when I was 19 years old. I went to friends' house and they were playing poker in a fictional way on Facebook. I had no idea what it was about and they started explaining to me. Today they are a big fan of the game haha

For example, I started playing at the age of 18.

We used to play poker at high school parties (for money), and back then it was 3 card draw.

Then, I took many years away from it, and didn't start playing until Paradise Poker, and Party Poker came along.
