I saw poker when i was 16 maybe and i didn't have a good idea about gambeling at the time then i started playin poker when i was 20 while studying.

 

[Pokerpoet2]

I started late in life I always loved card game's like Cribbage, Don, blackjack and 3 card brag, but did not get into poker until I was in my 40s.
If I knew how big it was going to be I would have started a long time ago.

My dad taught me how to play "Kings and Little Ones" when I was 8. Five card draw, kings and the smallest card in your hand are wild.

My first contact with poker was maybe a little "late" I was 24 years old between 2010 and 2011 in college and with my brother and his friends in home games but at that time I didn't know much about poker, but I started to understand it more and take it more seriously was from the year 2013.
