[ QUOTE ]
I disagree on poker.

I feel like that anybody with a ~100 IQ can probably be made into a reasonable winner at say 30/60 with enough study and practice.

[/ QUOTE ]Let's accept that as true. Just because one is profitable at 30/60, it doesn't mean he can go to the Big Game and clean at Barry Greenstein.

Similarly, the 26 year old multi-millionaire can become an accomplished driver, maybe even competitive on a regional basis. Doesn't mean he's ready for NASCAR, IndyCar, or Formula 1.
