Re: sklanksy\'s iq
[ QUOTE ]
Im too lazy to retrieve the exact quote, but something to the effect of this: IF YOU ARE ABOVE 130 IQ (GIFTED RANGE), STUDY 2 + 2, DO EVERYTHING RIGHT, READ HIS BOOKS, ETC, THEN YOU HAVE AROUND A 50% CHANCE OF SUCCEEDING IN POKER!! By success i think he said something to the effect of averaging a grand a week. [/ QUOTE ] That percentage seems very low. Did he make this statement before the online poker boom? I'd put it at ~95%, if you add the qualifier that you need to be emotionally stable/intelligent as well.

It's recent and in the 'giving up your day job part 2' thread on the magazine forum. chez

Re: sklanksy\'s iq
Hey Chez- would you mind asking the genius how he came up with this %? Seems a bit arbitrary to me. What limit are we playing? How many hours a week, etc...What the h*ll is the madman talking about?
