Re: my first post minus well be controversial
Your logic is flawed, as for the truly genius world shakers of Yale and Harvard, poker is -ev and a waste of their time.
The smart ones (most all of them) recognize this quickly. While they surely have the potential to be the best players, to invest the time and effort to do so would almost surely be -EV. So why would Harvard students make -EV decisions? Maybe slight gambling prob, in which case their potential drops down a bit.
The truly great players should come from working/middle class backgrounds and public universities: Players with high IQ's, but with no lucrative connections/daddy's company they're passing on running after college to play poker.
Basically, for brilliant harvard guys, you're wasting your time with a -ev game like poker. Get your degree, become Senators, make millions on wall street etc
