Playing Texas Hold'em since 2002. (I'm from 77) My friend played the game in Australia and infected us here in Belgium once he was back.
Luck is a huge factor. Don't judge losing players. If you win, stay humble. Hopefully there's an edge to be found somewhere.
My favorite players are Davidi Kitai, Tom Dwan, Phil Galfond, Addamo, Sweet Phil Hellmuth and so many more.
(honestly Phil Hellmuth plays incredible poker)
