Default Who is the smartest overall poker player?

...and I don't just mean poker knowledge, i mean overall brainpower. Yes, Sklansky is definitely in the team photo for me, but I'd have to go with Barry Greenstein. He's ( i believe) a co-founder of symantec, the company that makes Norton software, was a savant in school, (math especially), and gets it done on the tables at the highest levels, too. When he was like 16 years old, he went to school here in Illinois, a brand new state of the art mid 70's computer was brought inby his math teacher for lab usage. BG took the manual, went in the lab, never seeing this (or any?) computer ever before, and by the next day had programmed a golf game on it...
