    Just a curiosity poll. Although I'm on the younger side of life in my 20s, I feel like a child at the tables! So far, the only slaying I've witness at a table by an AP has been by 1 kid who was blatantly counting with a massive spread (How he was allowed to play is beyond me. I was flat betting $5 minimum just working on keeping count in a live environment. He went from $5 min to $600) and also appeared to be 15. I know we have quite the experienced crowd here, but I'm curious to how many others appear too young to be throwing out the cash necessary for AP play.

    I would answer if the poll was anonymous. Since you made it public, I won't.

    Poll changed to private in keeping with the nature of the site.

    Sorry about that. I figured the wide age ranges wouldn't out anyone. My apologies.

    Is this mental or physical age?

    In a public poll, you can see how each person voted. We have never had one.

    I believe it would be best to have a separate mental age/level of sanity poll lol.

    I look young and am carded constantly. I don't think my bet spread looks out of place for my age unless table conditions necessitate green chipping.

    My mental age is 6 or 21 depending on if I want teddy bears and blankets or alcohol at the moment. The voices say my level of sanity is sane, perfectly sane, ignore the watermelon.

    I wouldn't get caught walking into a high school and sitting down pretending to be a freshmen. Middle school 8th grade may be pushing it though.

    I was born and opened my eyes in blackjack world 8 years ago, when I met Norm in cyberspace.

    I'm a young one. I get carded all the time in Vegas but not so much anywhere else.

    My age also gets me a lot of ploppy heat from mid-age people to retirees when I make index plays. I've been called a "damn kid who can't play BJ and messes it up for everyone else". Ironically, these generations occuse mine (millennials) of being the entitled ones. It's my fault that they're losing money, not theirs.
