How many of us played magic before moving to poker?

[crovax4444]

Started during Mirage. I played mostly till plainshift. I started back up a little later and played during Scourge to moridian. I just realized a 9th edition just came out. I might build a deck to pwn some n00bs for fun O_o

Magic definitely has things that translates to poker, especially in the trap setting part of the game. However, the redundency of magic doesn't compare to the joys of poker.

I have more fun drafting magical cards than playing poker. Poker pays much better though, so I don't play much magical cards.

I don't know what the frack most of you are talking about. I'm a 55 y.o. fart.

Didn't David Williams play it too?

[SavageMiser]

Yeah, David Williams is a Magic guy. Efro too. That really annoying "daaaaah!" guy. Quite a few others that I can't recall off the top of my head.

I stopped around 2-3 years ago.

Played for a summer during highschool. Not hardcore(tournaments) or anything although we did have strategy discussion and deck building sessions once in a while...looking back that was a really lame summer [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I asked my wife if she would join a bridge club with me and my nephew started laughing at me, saying something about 'bridge is for old people'.

I said, boldly, 'nuh-unh!' and went to look for a bridge club.

They meet Thursday mornings at 10am at a nearby church.

Umm, ok.

I started playing bridge at age 13, so I guess I was old before my time.
