It only matters if you do not study the game.

When i was younger i used to limp a lot, bet with bad hand in bad moments, and now I also analise more, i can calculate percents, outs. So yes when u get older u also can get some benefits.

With experience comes understanding of the game. You receive your style of play. I think with age, every player is getting stronger.

It really depends on how prepared you are at the moment. When you`re old, you have more patience to control yourself under some circunstances, and the best part of being old is that you have a lot of experience, that young ones dont have in most cases. But the good part of being young is that you have more energy to learn and play the game for like hours

I think age is not important. An important experience. And much depends on the nature of man.

You think because. you're young!

*But with age - unfortunately - often slows the rate of brain processes and the elderly person more difficult to compete with the young.
Unfortunately. . .

Age does not matter. It is important to understand the game and its players in the field limit. Age gives experience, and experience brings profit.

have experience - it's wonderful. But when you want to instantly make the right decision, taking into account all the circumstances of the game and of players, need the speed of thought!

I am 40 years old and I am thinking in poker rather quickly. For me there is no problem to play 6-8 tables cache or 4 tables zoom with a + winrate

I think that age does not affect the image of the game. affects the experience of the game, if a person is interested to learn and improve their skills, it may 60 years learn to play not worse professionals, and if there is no desire to learn, you can play 10 years and is worse than one who plays the first year

Congratulations!

According to the Chinese calculus age: 40 years - the age of the teenager. to 60 years - the age of guy. after 60 - the age of an adult. and after 100 years begins the age of grandfather!

I'd say age has nothing to do with one's ability to play. It's more about experience, ability to learn, and focus.

Надо быть совершеннолетним, чтобы играть на деньги. И не сильно старым - когда уже плохо с головой.

The WSOP you are talking about is prob the tour and Im guessing in England. We can play here at 18 as can the rest of Europe (infact majority of countries it is 18).There have been quite a few americans who have come to Europe to play in these events under 21 for their first ever live big tournament.

I think to start learning the game all the same age plays a role because it is easier for young people to learn at all. But experienced players can show excellent results regardless of age

I think the older you get the more knowledge u have of poker, so you should be better at poker.

I think that tenure and not age is the most important thing playing poker. The player who has played forever and thinks they know it all tend to fool themselves in my opinion, because they feel they don't have much left to learn. I started playing many years ago, but really committed to trying to learn how to play properly and learn ins and outs of the game about 3 years ago. I feel this has made me a much better player. I think I can match my game up against some decent players. Now if i only had a decent bankroll to work with ;)

In poker players do not age. People are different, as well as different requirements for itself. Someone remembers 20 less than in the old 80. Now I suffer very much because of its nature. Very often tilt. For this I think that the older I will, so will be more disciplined, but with me it is unlikely to pass.))))

i think sometimes as we get older we become stubborn into believing what works for us in the post is the best way to do things.. such as poker, and old timers don't put in the work to progress their game, and the newer breed of players are always changing the meta..
