Poker the Game of Choice for 10-Year-Old Chinese University Prodigy
The more than billion-strong nation of China is home to a huge poker fan in the form of pint-sized Zhang Xinyang. The 10-year-old student at Tianjin University of Technology and Education likes to play poker in his off time. Rather than play with kids his own age, the Doogie Howser-in-the-works chooses to shuffle up and deal with his "peers," some of whom are approaching their twenties.
