Default Re: Young Players!!!?????

these are probably the types of people that perceive anyone as a fish if they are younger then them. a 50 year old can sit down at a table of 60 yo's and since he hasn't been playing as long as them, they will not give him any sort of respect.

think of it from their point of view. they've probably been playing for many many many years. never picked up a book or studied the game. here comes a young kid that has probably played less then 3 years, so to them he doesn't know nearly as much as them. it's an experience game. and to be honest, most of the young players that do sit at their game, probably know squat. little do they know that you've probably studied the hell out of the game.

personally, i don't give anyone respect, young or old, till they've showed me they play well. i'm sure you do the same thing.
