First hold em

[Tuff Luck]

When was the first time you played hold em and was that the time you realized you liked it so much? Was it a home game with family/friends? Give the info.

As for me I played it with my family a few times just playing with fake money when I was a lot younger, but as I got older, I started playing with friends for only $5 buy-ins, and I started playng every week. Then I experienced online poker playing, and I've been playing with friends/online ever since.

edit: I shouldn't have just said hold em, but it's basically the game that got me into the poker world.
