Please ... no ...

If you've been following Matt Savage's transcript of the final table tonight, you've probably already read about WPT's planned "Young Guns of Poker." If not, just know that WPT is planning yet another special tournament, this time featuring David Williams, Scott Fischman, Peter Lawson and Joe Cassidy, and I suppose a couple more, although the transcript only lists those four.

Can we please end this unrelenting fixation with the younger players? Please, WPT, throw us a bone and schedule an "Old Farts of Poker." I would much rather see Doyle Brunson, Amarillo Slim, T.J. Cloutier and the like. OK, I know Slim has got what I will politely refer to as image problems, but he's still one of the legends of the game. These are the guys I would like to see wage an all-out battle against each other. The whole "Young Punks of Poker" has been done to death.
