That's when it all started 19 years ago when I was 13. That's what created the degenerate gambler I am today. I would play poker (5 card draw, 7 stud) for my valuable sports cards. I remember losing my 82 Topps Cal Ripken rookie card in a best of 5 series. Never won that one back. We would play 3-5 times a week. Why couldn't I just play sports or chase girls back then? Maybe even study some schoolwork every now and then and become sucessful? No I had to start gambling. Don't think I've gone 1 week without gambling since then.
Anyone else play cards (poker)for baseball cards to begin their gambling?

#5No - but I'd win them - and just sell them back. So there was some profit there.Originally posted by BigmikesmYeah POGS were like coins but with pictures on them....Didn't even know they were worth anything. Was there a price guide for those things? That's too funny!Comment -

#6I know what your talking about BURT. I bet you felt like you lost everything when you lost the Princess Di beanie! I once gave my girlfriend that same beanie for some occassion (Sweetest Day or some B.S.) and I remember the look in her eyes when she saw itOriginally posted by BurtRappman I started playing for cards..
