Poker, a game for intellectuals?

Poker certainly ain't for dummies, but it ain't just for big brains neither. At the tables, intuition and instinct matter more than any doctorate. You gotta read folks like a book, looking for tells in their eyes, hands, and habits. See what makes 'em twitch when the action comes to ‘em.

Real poker players develop a kind of sixth sense about who's holding strong hands and who's bluffing through their teeth. We take the measure of our opponents quickly, sizing ‘em up in a single deal or over hundreds of hands. While poker rewards out thinking the other players, a sharp mind needs some real-world experience at the tables to become a master strategist. IQ only takes you so far, partner, the rest is learned the hard way.
