Played 7card stud for years live. Just started playing Hold Em the last year or year and a half.

I've only been playing on-line for about six months. Starting playing live seriously about two months ago. Of course, I've been playing in homes games for several years, but didn't delve into the strategy side until I starting playing on-line and posting here.

I'm a break even player now, which means I'm above the rake. I don't expect to really be profitable for a while, esp with all the mistakes I continually make (see my hand analysis threads to see what I mean).

Ive been playing online since September and am on a very average profit but happy as i only turned 18 on saturday and im still very much learning the game

Been playing just over a year both live and online. Wish I'd started playing earlier (22 now) but hey.

I have to recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

For some of the old timers, how long did it take for you to become a winning player?
