Default Re: Furgeson says have to be very intelligent! Is he right?

I'm just curious how people read phil ivey's mind. Saying he does quick mental calcualtions on the spot? How do you know that. Others have said the same thing? How do you know he is doing quick calcualtions? Only he knows what he's thinking. Maybe he doesn't calcualte anything and goes on feel for his oppnent. And does no math whatsoever. I'm not saying thats the case. But how do you guys know what he's doing in his head? And i'm not meaning to come off arguing with you. I just always hear people say things like that when its pure specualtion. You dont know if he is very smart or anything about him. All you know is he has success playing poker. The intensely smart part is pure speculation.
