I was thinking about a major reason why I do not know how to play poker, and then I remembered that yes, environmental factors contributed to it because around me poker was not a very popular game, even while growing up.
When and how did you learn to play poker?
It's exactly the opposite with me. I have several friends who love poker. They play it for fun but also like to visit casinos to participate in tournaments and cash games. But I don't know how to play poker and was never interested in learning. One of my best friends visits other cities close to his place of living to participate in poker tournaments. I watched him play once. It took more than 3 hours and I got bored out of my mind in the end. I just don't see the appeal in it.
