How did you start playing?

How or when did you start playing poker or gambling in general? What was it that got you hooked?

My husband and I were having dinner with friends and decided to play after the dishes had cleared. It was the first time I had played and my husband made fun of me the whole time, but I liked it (the game, not the teasing). I've been playing it on and off online since. I hope I'm getting better at it, I'd like to beat the pants off of him next time we play.

I started playing with friends in high school. I got hooked on the satisfaction that I got when I beat a jerk who thought I would be easy to beat.
