Are poker players smart?

[Kurn, son of Mogh]

If you're goal is a Nobel prize, it's better to be smart.

If you're goal is to be a TV personality, it's better to be handsome.

If your goal is to get beautiful women, it's better to be a musician.

I didn't notice how good-looking you were! Thanks for letting me know, or else I'd have forever been oblivious to that fact.

Let's have Dynasty play head's up against anyone else who is a winning player, but undisputably dumber than him. If Dynasty wins, then we know that IQ matters.

Whatever, you noticed. I saw that look of resigned indignation on your face when you saw all the Light girls drooling over me...

is it better to be handsome or smart?

Eh... I wouldn't want to live a life without both... [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I'll probably get kill straight away, but it seems to me that lots of poker players think they're really smart. really smart people seem to be more difficult to find however.

So instead of asking 'are poker players smart', shall we ask 'are poker players ego-boosted or too proud of themselves' ?
