Making a comeback
What do you think of sports pros making a comeback? Lance Armstrong trying to win another Tour de France… sports people having to face up to retirement must be hard enough, but coming out of retirement and training again to get to the top must be very dificult.
Psychologically you know that you used to be able to do it, but it must be hard to get to the top again. Everyone knows what it is like to try and regain your fitness after a long layoff… its tough!!
Nice thing about poker is that you can be any age and still play. Look at Doyle Brunson, he is still as sharp as ever! And no-one is ever going to take that experience away!

Knowing when to retire must be a tough decision for top players, hanging in there too long is not the right thing to do. They should rather retire at the top of their game.
