Disclaimer: I don't recommend Poker for everyone. If you don't treat Poker just right, it can destroy your life even in ways unrelated to your finances. Poker has so many dangers that I can't put it in words. If you start on freerolls and don't put up much of your own money by playing at the smallest stakes then you can work your way up. Just never get a big head on yourself that you're better than you are and start using a lot of money to supplement your bankroll or go out to borrow money to play, etc. There's so many dangers that I don't recommend it for everyone. There's a lot of ways you can treat poker as gambling instead of the skill based game that it is.
I just felt I needed to say a disclaimer because Poker does destroy some irresponsible people's lives even though to me the game is more fun than playing Chess. Computers will play a mean game of NL Texas Holdem pretty soon, but until then, its one of the best games of strategy you can play that a computer isn't superior.
