Poker, a game for intellectuals?

[yuriko oyama]

it would include a great deal of courage and resilience in the two aspects you mentioned.

I think poker is a game for all lovers of card games. For if there were no ordinary amateurs in it, and not those whom we used to call "professionals", the game would not have been so popular and interesting.

Poker is a game of intelligence with many variables, for which the players must be of a certain level of intelligence to succeed.

[valen.bs.95]

I think yes) You need to think a lot, but luck is also needed

Modern poker and software, bonus programs greatly simplify the entry threshold, so you don’t have to be super smart to play, but you need to adequately assess your capabilities.

По вашему мнению, чрезвычайно хорошему игроку требуется исключительно высокий интеллект?

Я бы сказал: «Нет». Чтобы стать хорошим игроком, нужно только терпение и удача. А в живом покере умение читать людей.

I disagree. Intelligence and logical thinking are the two main qualities of a good player.

Poker doesn't require a lot of intelligence. But a fool man definitely won't be able to systematically win tournaments. In my opinion, there are several criteria that a successful player should have.

 

[dreamer13]

This is an intellectual game. The success of poker players does not depend on chance or luck, but on the knowledge of tactics and strategy, the ability to calculate the moves of opponents, and to a large extent on an understanding of psychology.Stay positive: A positive attitude helps to attract good luck. Focus on your accomplishments and future goals. Be grateful: Don't forget to give thanks for everything you have and everything you achieve. Gratitude helps you attract more positive things into your life.

 

[GARCIA PABLO DANIEL]

If you know about strategy and obviously luck

 

[ledsmith]

I think that poker is a game for everyone and everyone, only not everyone will win in this game.

 

[Fushicho]

A good player must have above-average intelligence. Most people who commented consider intelligence and education to be synonymous. A person can be intelligent, and he does not need to be educated and vice versa. Intelligence is the ability to quickly and efficiently navigate new and unfamiliar situations, able to learn from experience, easily adapt to new situations... Educated and uneducated people can learn to play poker, but intelligent people will be more successful.

Yeah. I agree with this. Although I have seen plenty of players of a lesser integligence who play poker, they aren't really successful. But they can still enjoy the game and the occasional win. You need a lot of intelligence to be successful.
