Not really sure why you hate the guy for running a staking stable because it's one of them things where if he don't do it someone else will fill the spot.

I don't really hate him, it's just some of the assholes he has backed.

Considering that he and Sheets have staked hundreds of young internet kids, has he made a huge profit doing it?

WOW, oldest WSOP final table in decades.

Since 2008, when the November 9 first started the oldest player to win the WSOP main event has been Martin Jacobson 27 years old from Sweden who won in 2014.

JohnnyBax who is 50 years old may be the favorite to win but history has shown that the younger kids have the advantage for as long as the November 9 has existed.
