Wow, thats a terrible call by Doyle.




A few other notes on the differicies beteween young and old people.

1. You probably have to be a somewhat of a degen to reach the higher levels since you have to play a lot to accumulate money if you don't get lucky in a donkament. This basically rules out older people since they have full time jobs and families.

2. It's ridiculous to say that older guys get slower in their 30-ies.

3. A big factor is the computer literacy and the young kids growing up with computer games and stuff. They are obv much better at multitasking than older guys.

BTW I am 40 and I am pretty decent with computers but my limit is 4-tabling where I sometimes struggle. 3 tables are no problem but I am nowhere nere the 8-10 tabling wizards and never will be. I am also not that of a degen to put in the hours to reach the nose bleed stakes and I have of course not the time since I have a pretty demanding day job.
