How old were you when you made your first bet for money?

Unfortunately for me it was about 14 years old just with some friends but it was real money. lol

Anyone else?

I was 12 when I first went to Churchill Downs with family. They gave me $2 to bet on each race, then it was all down hill from there.

I must have been 5 or 6. Me and the neighborhood kids playing 5-card draw for pennies.
Found a bookie at 13. My first $1,000 bet at age 17; I was up over $1,000 so I was trying to double up on the Superbowl. I had the Giants over Denver - losing at the half. WINNER!!! I'll never forget it.

My parents were Steeler fans (pricks). I'd say starting around 10 years old I'd bet my them 5 bucks a game out of my allowance on the steeler games. I'd pick my spots to fade'em....I did alright.

well...i was 14 when i started playing the football pool at my dad's work, and winning once or twice sometimes a year. It got to the point where my dad would buy in for me and I would let him keep half. I opened a sportsbook account when I was 17 and of course lied about my age to open it and sent the money western union...it was fun times

my sheriff deputy neighbor was a bookie and my dad and other neighbors hung out there....1st bet was on the LA Raiders over the Cle Browns way back in like 90 or 91 or 92....Cleveland won and I lost $22. I was in junior high. By the time I was a freshman in HS I was taking games for the sheriff deputy at school and answering his phone on the weekends....my HS principal was a degenerate gambler and protected me at school when some of the teachers caught on to me...my dad taught me the game and I thank him dearly!

the librarian busted me when I left the USA Today lines in the copier...the shite hit the fan...my parents were called...the judge at juvenile court was called and had a sit down w/ me

F___ all of them player hating bitches! Not my fault that they cannot take the initiative in life. Go about your BS ways and don't f___ w/ me! I walked away w/ no record and the snitches who hated on me are complete 0's today...F___ you F____ you F___ you.

F___ Sam!
F____ Zach!
F____ Chad!

All 3 of you are low life MF'ers! Chad married a woman in town after he got her pregnant. The baby came out w/ red hair and Chad is far from red hair. He found out later that the baby was not his. Really? Chad you are a dumb MF'er. F____ your dad too! He always hated me and I found out later that he called juvenile court on me!

Sam....you are a dirt bag snitch! F___ you!

Zach... you hippy bitch f___face! He used to always say "live off the land...money isn't everything." Zach...have you seen the world lately? Money isn't everything? F____ you and f___ Phish and f___ your hippy snitch ways!
