Do PKR.com Veterans of Poker Have an Advantage?
Category: Poker
Now of course any pkr.com poker player of the older generations, would see this as a very simple question to answer.
They would say of course players who have spent more years playing on www.pkr.com and are older and wiser than younger players, will have an advantage, and in many ways that does make sense.
You cannot deny that online poker is largely a case of knowing what the right decision is to make in any scenario which presents itself, and experience goes far in these situations.
Despite this though, you have to look at some older legends of the game such as Amarillo Slim and Doyle Brunson and notice that they have not won most of their bracelet in more recent years. Doyle won 6 of his 10 bracelets in only his first 3 years at the World Series, but he has won only 3 bracelets in the past 10 years.
Amarillo having won 4 bracelets at the World Series in his life, hasn’t won one for 18 years.
You could of course attribute this to an increased amount of www.pkr.com players turning up each year and we can accept that will have an effect. Also though, as players get older they seem to enter less events, but this can be directly linked to older poker players not being able to keep up the pace of playing intense poker almost every day for many weeks.
Whatever the reasons it seems that players who haven’t reached their latter years yet do better in tournaments over the long haul. I can certainly agree that wisdom and experience do contribute to playing good poker, but youthful exuberance also seems to give rise to a lot of success at the tables too.
