Default Level of Play of Wall Street Superstars

We'd ususally expect any wealthy non-poker pro to be pretty bad, and even most hedge fund managers are not very good. But what about guys like Ken Griffin and Stevie Cohen who are all supposedly very into poker and have more money than all the biggest winners in the poker world combined? I've read Cohen constantly killed all the games he played in before Wall Street, understandably. Its pretty tough to imagine them being donks.

So what's the verdict / estimations on these guys? Or maybe someone here has played with them?

I'd imagine many of them suck. Not becasue they lack aptitude, but becasue of the miniscule stakes.
