Maybe with the exception of New Orleans, it's hard to find a table where the median aged player is under 50 anywhere from Pensacola to Lake Charles.
I particularly noticed it in this casino, but the other ones didn't exactly attract a lot of the young crowd either, that's correct. Although I was there a few days before some WSOP circuit event or something like that in the IP, don't remember exactly, and some of the players I talked to were there for that. So in BR and IP it was not that bad, but still median age surely higher than a typical LV or LA table.
Yeah, NOLA is a lot different.
