Actually the fact that he is one of the best hu players in the world is a pretty good measure of his cognitive/analytical ability or intelligence. Would you say the same thing about a world class chess player? ' I don't think you can call someone intelligent because he excels at one thing'

I think you dont realize that IQ has less to do with what you normally call "book smart" than it has to do with talent in games like chess, poker etc.

No.

I know some extremely good poker players that I would not call intelligent. I guess it depends on your definition of "intelligent", though.
