Re: Just how young (and why) are the top players online?
the combination of online multitabling and access to information on successful strategy means accelerated improvement to those who take advantage of it.
I play live occasionally at a local casino, and in a $30 tournament a couple of weeks ago (which i won ldo), it took only about 5 minutes at my initial table for the idea of online poker being rigged to come up. Most of the older crowd seemed so inherently skeptical of online poker.
I think that obv lack of time is the key issue, but I also think that some older folks are just so set in their ways that the idea of using the internet to learn about the game sounds absurd when they can just go on down to the casino and play.
