"Phil Ivey is the Tiger Woods of Poker"

[Duke]

Ferguson is surely more edumacated, but I wouldn't even start to make assumptions about any top players' intelligence.

Or was this meant as a joke given all the complaints about IQ tests and SAT's being culturally biased?

Not to take anything away from Chris, but Phil is supposed to be a pretty bright guy as well.

[CCass]

No social commentary was intended. I was merely trying to compare the fact that Ferguson has a PHD in Mathematics / Computer Science to the fact that Tiger was "only" educated at Stanford.

You don't hear that, do you?

Yes, I have also found the unintentional comedy to be very amusing. It's nice when everybody can have a good laugh at America's national obsession.
