obviously chess, not even remotely close. Ask any titled chessplayer and I'm pretty sure they will give you the same answer.

Seriously guys; most of poker is a monkey game. If you're not retarded, Read HoH and you'll be a winner in almost any game in the world. Just to be an average tournament chessplayer requires WAY more study/intellectual work than being a very winning poker player. With all due respect, much of NLHE can be reduced to logic monkeys can understand. Good luck making pot odds/implied odds/EV calcuations look like they're in the same universe as accurately judging an endgame 15 moves down the line, anyone who cares to try [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
