What\'s your online poker age?
 
When did you start to play poker on the Internet in a regular (or semi-regular) basis?

I remember I deposited $500 in Paradise circa 2000,2001, played one session of 10-20, lost and thought it was rigged.

It was until Moneymaker when I overcome my online fear and deposited again on June 14, 2003

Played semi-regularly since then, so my online poker age is 4 years, 2 months and 17 days.

BTW my first game was a $5 sit&go on Party.

What's your age? What was your first game?

Got $.90 for free in a crappy promotion at a small site called All-In Poker. I started out with the lowest limits, $.05/$.10 Limit, didn't go broke, and practiced proper bankroll management when I finally got a bankroll ($30). That was in April 2006.

I remember when I had turned that into $5, a guy sat down at my table with $600 and said that poker was all luck and no skill. To demonstrate this, he wasn't going to do anything at all except for raise. I took 100BBs off of him ($10). [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Now I play 2/4 to 5/10 NL on FTP and my bankroll is nearly $40k.

My first deposit was on 8/28/2005, so I'm 2 years and 2 days old.

At first I played NL10 cash games, as well as $5.50 SnGs and MTTs. This was way before I even when what I was doing.

Deposited for the first time in September 2006 on Party (Canadian ftw). Lost the $50, re-deposited, lost again. Deposited $85 on stars and never looked back.

I'm about 11 months old. w00t.

Beat: I missed the online boom when any monkey could win at mid-stakes.

Still playing on original 60$ buy in.

I thought this question was going to be something like: For online players, take your table hours and divide by 24...how old are you now?

Some people here are probably over 100 years old now.

When I lose I get mad and curse at people. They inform me that I'm a baby. I agree [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
