Sklansky might know who I'm talking about, but I can't remember his name.
I am playing poker as i write this with a 98 year old man that has to lift his cards up to two inches from his face with one eye closed to see them. We are playing 5-10 plo. Two years ago he had pnemonia and wasnt playing for 3 months and his first night back he played a 30 hr session. He regularly played 24 hr sessions up until about a year ago but now he is slowing down and playing shorter sessions. He is a break even to slight winner in the game.

I've played with him at Evansville Aztar. He got picked up once and went on a rant threatening to whip everybody in the casino. Unbelievable. I hope I put it on the funniest thing I ever saw at a poker table thread.
