What poker room did you start at?

My first poker room was Everest Poker...good times
They used to have free 24/7 sit'gos and you could play how many sit'gos you wanted. Of course the prize was only 10 cents, but you could play multiple tables at the same time. I made my first bankroll there.

I startet with bet&win before it became bwin. Back then, you could also play at online casinos. Today, unfortunately, you are no longer allowed to do so in germany.

I started my poker "career" at GGPoker when I heard about the honeymoon promotion. It Felt nicely motivating. As a beginner, threshold for playing with real money was high, but as the benefits of honey moon were so good, it was worth playing. It was good that the promotion encouraged to try different game formats, even though some like all in or fold felt quite terrible to play. But trying different games helped me to understand what I enjoy and what do not enjoy. Also eventually got quite lot of profit from honeymoon!

I started at partypoker in 2010. The casino was good there, and later the sports betting. I think it's still good, but Partypoker withdrew from Hungary. The laws can do that. If the wind changes in the spring, maybe it will return.

Followed up by Pokerstars.

I started playing in 2018. My colleague played at work, I often watched him and became interested too. I created my first account on 888 because there was a promotion at the time where you could get $88 for free. Although in reality I think I only got $8, I can honestly say that my only regret is that I started playing so late.

I remember Everest Poker. They also withdrew from Hungary. I just looked it up and it was in 2016. I played there and I didn't think it had been that long. I don't know what the reason for the withdrawal was. The regulations were introduced here later. Are they still around?

PokerStars then 888poker ...Poker has become frustrating lately, mainly because many platforms no longer support the region where I live.
However, WPT still remains a good option, as it continues to support our region and offers regular tournaments and freerolls. It’s not perfect, but for now, it’s one of the few reliable choices left.

I created an account on PokerStars about 8 years ago. At that time, I was working two or three days a week and had a lot of free time. Since then, poker has been my favorite hobby.

When I started playing poker, I used Everest Poker and Titan Poker.

I loved playing on Titan! The Jackpot SNGs were so fun!

I started playing at Full Tilt Poker in 2002. I remember it was full of Americans back then, and people would win and lose tens of thousands of dollars in literally 5 minutes. I loved watching the high-stakes cash games there.I remember one player winning $90K and then losing it all 10 minutes later.

Full Tilt was great too! I miss being able to play there - we had freerolls and I think also some money-added buy-ins there for CC members. Was a lot of fun.

My very first deposit and tournament was at the Sportingbet poker room, which belongs to the Boss network, around 2005-2006.
(I won my first tournament with about 1000 people, so my bankroll strengthened and fortunately I haven't had to add any of my own money since then)

OMG I remember playing there too! My then husband was also into sports betting, and then we saw the poker room, so that was perfect. Not the best interface, but was good for some smaller field tournaments.
