imo. It's just insane some of the calls and bluffs he can make and end up being right most of the time.

Does one need to be a Galfond tier super genius to get this good?

Why is he a super genius? Clearly the guys smart but it's all about putting the work in to get better.

Eh Galfond is definitely ahead of the game when it comes to thought process. Not everyone who puts in the same amount of time is going to come away with the same amount of ability.

Do you need to be on his level to play nosebleeds? No. Will he always be one of the best? Yes, so long as he continues to apply himself. He's a smart guy, smarter than the average bear.
