Young kid from Spain doing good in poker nice! Spain economy is poor right now and few jobs especially for younger people nice to see younger generation doesn't let that hold them back! Seems humble too from interview I like to see that from players

He lives in the UK due to Spain's online poker laws. I believe he's called "Amadi_17" or something similar and is a complete boss!

ahhhh to be young again....no fear....no worries....
As poker is becoming more and more popular around the world,so more and more young players are not only learning the game but also mastering it and making a few dollars on the way.
When I started playing 10 years ago I played 5 live tournaments 5 times a week and as on line poker became more accessible my playing time increased.
Now I play less as I have other hobbies and work pressure.
As us older players slow down so the young players are taking over.
Good luck to them !
