I did not watch Jim Meehan when he was playing at the poker tables.
I do not remember seeing him at the table with other players.

to say this true I not know who he is, hear first time about this player but this is reality about life, it is not matter who you are and how many money you have and fans too you still die one day. maybe 66 is too young because I like to think about 75 is good number, then time is present later

I hear about this player for the first time. Probably because he hasn't played in a while.In my opinion 66 years is too short term... That's too bad. R. I. P.
