Where did you learn to play?

[jackh86]

I learned playing poker with friends and schoolmates a very long time ago.
And I'm improving my skills nowadays with local low price tournaments and sit'n'gos.
I love this game very much.

Learning to play

I learned to play in smoky back rooms but I really refined my style of play on Ful Tilt. Playing online I had to adjust to not being able to look at players to spot weakness in their game. I have begun to play more statistically sound poker.

while betting at a sportsbook

while betting at a sportsbook i read about their poker room and freeroll. Didn't know much about it, and that first game someone told me about cardschat and i came here, (cause I needed it). This is the first forum i joined and started playing more frequently then in the freerolls. But Ny state where i lived closed the door on my deposit options so for a while i couldn't play in a lot of games anywhere. Then all the cardschat sites closed on us in all the states which was bad. Used to play a titan alot and noble. Kinda liked those sites. But I love full tilt so im glad i can play this freeroll from cards chat. Thanx cardschat.

Been playing poker since I was about 16 with family. Never heard of hold-em till playing with friends about 2yrs ago. Thought it was great game. Got computer 2yrs ago and checked out online games search. When I found holdem was thrilled. Played with playmoney. Got addicted. Its now my favorite passtime. Probably on line 8hrs a day playing. Good thing I'm a retired housewife lol.

I learned to play poker and other card games when I was about 8 or 10 years old (umpteen dozen years ago). Just a hop, skip, and jump to holdem. Really enjoy playing.

i learned to play in the pub funniest is i had beginnersluck that evening over € 200 i've won that eve

 

[joanpe]

I started after watching some EPT videos on TV.
So, I saw Poker - Online Poker Games at PokerStars - Play Texas Holdem and tried there.
At the beginning I tried on play money tables, and I begin to win most of the times.
So, I tried to play on freeroll for real money and after winning a few $, tried to play on 2-4 cents tables.
But I can't stand loosing with better hand against crap cards, so I decided continue with my freerolls and just play for fun

That's all

Good luck all

I also cashed out money

learned to play poker....

Well I learned to play poker at a local bar. A bunch of us would get together on Tuesday nights and play all different kinds of games for usually 1-2. As I got better I took my talents to the casino and also excelled there. Now I for the most part play on-line. Yankeenut23

 

[strut_nut]

I learned to play on the old site, Dynamite Poker. I first registered on the site to watch my brother play and chat with him. But, I started entering the freerolls and got hooked. This was back in 2003.

[WhodeyX]

Got swept by the whole Moneymaker poker frenzy. It was right when the sport really started to garner national attention. Would play every weekend with buddies in 5 and 10 dollar tournies along with .25/.50 cash games. Picked up on Sklansky's and Harrington's books and its been uphill ever since then.
