Message: [QUOTE="Herkstwin, post: 5637742, member: 285307"] All you young folks are just getting started!! Good for you. I hope you enjoy poker for the rest of your lives. I am 74 years old; probably among a handful of senior citizens on Cardschat. My poker 'career' began 15 years ago, when I was 59 years old. Heck. a lot of posters here are less than half that old. A friend had started up a home game and when he explained the low limits the group was playing, I got interested. TV poker shows had gotten me interested, and I always saw the poker rooms when we were in casinos. Maybe if I had started when I was young, like most of you, I would be a better player than I am now. At my age, learning takes longer, and my senior attention span for studying new material has reverted to that of a four year old. If you see me on the PokerStars tables, please take it easy on this old guy. Remember - respect your elders. [/QUOTE]
