Made my first bet when I was roughly 10 years old on the Cowboys, ats no less. That was the year Emmitt held out the first 2 games so however long ago that was. Taught the neighborhood kids to play draw poker around the same time and we'd play for sports cards. I suppose a couple years later I started playing the parlay tickets you get at bars. Started poker around 19 and started going to the casino shortly after I was 21. Made my first online bet when Forrest and Tito fought.

So basically my entire life.
