Hi.
Probably because young people are more willing to take risks. Although in general, age does not matter in poker, the main thing is patience and discipline.
Good luck.

I think it's because a few years ago poker was widely spread throughout the world and tries to attract young people all the time, in the past poker was a game for men, adults, at night, mafia, betting was changing and today it is suitable for all public and is available to everyone, which makes it possible to see many more young people

Because poker transferred online first, therefore people got an opportunity to play a lot of poker without leaving their house, to implement playing poker into their daily life without full commitment. That lead to a big player pool, and as a result, to the development of game, theory, studying materials and tools, etc. So now if you're entering poker you have everything you need to succeed and you don't have to waste your time as much as it took prior, and you're still just sitting in your room. Successful online poker players then taste their waters in offline poker, and are quite successful there, because of the said factors offline hasn't evolved as much as online, and probably it will never will due to the said factors, again.

Because poker is on line and from there they can have plenty information.

In order for one of the hands to have a chance of winning in poker 2 times higher than the other, it must consist of a higher pair of cards than the opponent's pair. The chances of winning depend not only on the play jackpot pokies for real money presence of a pair and the seniority of the cards included in it. Some pocket cards have more winning potential at showdown than others.

I think your answer is in the wrong topic.

I think this situation happens in almost everything in life, because usually younger people are always trying to improve and sometimes when we get older (not everyone of course) we don't have the same energy to keep updated with all the new information available. But I still think the best poker players in the world still are the "old" ones.
