I too started out playing poker.  Then started researching online casinos and found this forum about 4 months ago.  Now I play online slots on a regular basis.

I have been playing online since 1999. Oh boy do I miss the good old days with playtech (Casino DelRio), They knew how to give the VIP treatment. Had my own VIP Manager and lots of treats, even an all expense paid trip to the home office and 4 days of ROYAL treatment. Withdrawals were done within 24 hours and in my bank account or back on my CC 3 days later.

my first time was 1999...and my biggest win was at cinama casino...i hit a royal flush for 4,000 and worked that up to 6,000 cashed out 5,000 into my netteller account took a week and a lot of faxing...that was in 2001 ....

my favorite casino was intertops green wow the screenhots i wish i would have taken from there...havent hit since....it left or at least i havent cashed out...lol

i remember first playing at Party Poker and getting a pokerchip set which i still use today. I think it was back in the late 90s...98? 99?

started 2007 saw my friend playing slots online at my house and i just got curious so i tried and  i enjoyed playing eversince.

I think it was around 1999 for me, Golden Palace, where I started with card games and video poker.  Didn't really play much, a few times a year. I was really nervous too, about making deposits and didn't really get in to the whole online gambling thing until 2005, when I got a spam email offering some free spins or cash to try a Micro casino, Golden Tiger. I will never forget that because this moment is when I pretty much got hooked.  I deposited $40, played some video poker, didn't do well and decided to try out a slot game as I didn't play those much.  Clicked on Big Kahuna, didn't know what the heck I was doing, didn't change my bet, I think the default was $2.25 and pressed the 'spin' button. My first spin...literally caused me to fall off my chair!  I got all 5 wild and won just over $2,000! (I did keep a screen shot of that one for awhile!) I was SOOO nervous, didn't know what the heck to do next but I did manage to go through the steps to get most of my winnings cashed out, and received in a prompt manner.  From then on, there was no stopping me...unfortunately.  My favorite casinos during that time were Roxy's Palace, Golden Tiger and Intertops. I won thousands over the course of a couple years but sure didn't cash out as often as I should have.  I don't like RTG software as much as Micro so don't play as much as I used to, which is a good thing.
