They have a saying in the poker community that high stakes players that are drinkers end up playing 2/4 in old age. That is a super low game. I have been smoking pot off and on for 50 years and am almost 71 now. I went on the road a few years ago for the winter, playing the biggest limit games I could find (15/30 to $50/$100) on the west coast between Seattle and the Bay area and made a good living. Felt I was at the top of my game. I don't think pot harms the brain a bit and science says the same thing. But I am also not a drinker and never even had alcohol in my house until I was 60 and never did any other drugs, including smoking. Just a little pot once in a while. I think sentient beings are hippies and they gave it to us because they like us. Sure makes old age easier to deal with. More fun and less aches and pains.
