Poker in that case is like chess: Never too late to learn it, but Poker is much more easier to learn and to climb up the levels (compare to chess).

Of course

yes, of course, you have to dedicate a lot of study time to him, since he is younger he is better because of time, energy, everything. but obviously you can learn, I hope you do very well, regards!

The oldest champion was Paul McKinney, who received the bracelet in his ninth decade.

Check yourself!

Any age

I think anyone can learn anything at any age. All you need is the desire to learn and place in the proper effort. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks?

I think that it is rather the best age and the best time to play, you have time to learn, read about poker, whole books if you like a good read, you have time to practice freerolls and since you are retired you will enjoy watching tournaments without be thinking that you have to go do something, quick advice, enjoy poker to the fullest and you will see that apart from being a great game you can win some money if you learn to be patient and play it calmly. Regards and successes.

I think you can learn poker at any age & even more so at an older age as with age comes wisdom which can be a massive factor in any poker game��

No you can not, I am 68 and and I still suck at poker.
Why would age make a difference at learning anything. If you want to learn just do it. If you can not learn now, chances are you could never learn. So get out there and join us, have some fun. pokerstars is a good place to start.

I've been playing for a few years, I also started when I was older, it takes a lot of time and dedication but it's worth it. It is never too late to learn and there are many examples of older people who finished a career such as law, medicine and other professions. I don't think poker is more difficult. With the time that you will have once you retire, you can put yourself in the position of being a good poker player.

Even at older you still get the same bad beats but you are not as mad as before because you have seen it all

You can learn to play poker at any age, the most necessary and main quality that you should have is calmness.
