I was looking at the points payouts per country and I got thinking about something I heard somewhere or thought of that made alot of sense.
With poker expanding so rapidly, soon U.S. players may become less dominant. Because in other countries like Canada you can get into a casino or sit a poker table or go online and play at 18. Whereas in the US you have to wait an extra 3 years to get the legitimate live sit down tournament experience. At the WSOP WPT this experience has to go a long way. You guys think Canadian poker players have the upper hand against Americans? Or any country that sets the age at 18 against US's 21?

Btw its 19 in some Canadian Provinces, British Columbia for example, where I live, but I know that Alberta is 18 so I'm not sure what province you live in but I thought most were 19.
I'm also pretty sure thats the oldest requirement in Canada, I don't think there are any higher than 19. Matt
