Just wondering the age of all you folks (mostly wanna know about the younger players 25 and under) becausea. Alot of micro-limit players that don't have a big BR which denotes youthb. Some posts state that they are not yet old enough to play poker online i.e. not 18Im going somewhere with this but want to get a feel for the ages on the forum and am really wondering how old some of yall are when you decided to take the game serious. Like do we have a 13 year old posting about the merits of AQo out of position and so forth.Im 20 if yall wanted to know.

I'm 33, started playing around September last year.Do not have a big bankroll, but have a lovely wife, one 20 month old boy, and another kid on the way, so that's probably why my bankroll is so small.

19, been playing (and winning) at poker for 6 years. I have a decent roll of about $600 but just got a bank account and deposited into Party Poker. Doubled my initial deposit in about 2 hours.
I don't approve of political jokes. I've seen too many of them get elected.

I'm 34 and have a 7 month old son - named Dominik obviously!
If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.

I'm 16 and been playing the area for about 2 years now. I know i'm still young and it's illegal technically to play, but it's not illegal unless you're caught. :D I've had some major swings in my game and some major holes i've had to cover up. Over the past two years i think i've become a semi decent /good player.

I'm 17, although I earn all my money in home games (don't play for cash online due to the fact that I still don't win as much as I should in home games =P).

I'm 30. Funny I was going to post the same question but never got around to it. As a side note I always pictured Smash being older than 32. Like 50 or something. I guess I shouldn't assume things.

I am 33 years old, and I have been playing poker for 17 years. I used to play for money but that got a little boring. LOL.
Dreams

As I lay here sleeping in your arms,
I begin to slip off into pleasent dreams.
As I begin to wander around in my dream life,
I realize nothing can hurt me because your
keeping me safe.
My beautiful sunny day suddenly turns pitch
black,
Then I begin to scream hoping you can hear my
cries in the dark.
My hope suddenly becomes reality when I see
your brown eyes,
I see your concern and fear and say "I'm finenow that I'm back here with you my love."

31. I play microlimits online for two reasons:1) For the challenge of trying to build a bankroll from scratch (from $12 to $23.78 so far at .02/.04, maybe I'll get lucky and move up shortly) :)2) To gain the experience of seeing many hands and working out leaks in my play. I play 40 table hours a week (usually 4-tabling so it doesn't take long in real time) and average about 1900 hands a week. I think the experience is a big help.
