    People have often brought up whether you need X intelligence to make it to Y level in poker. I think a much bigger indicator of potential success, at least up to ~$100-150/hr is a person's ability to follow directions and approach the learning process in anything resembling a good way. I think that's the single thing that keeps most BC posters from ever making 6 figures at poker.

    I think m2m's biggest leak is that he's Canadian. Another important leak is he chats too much while grinding. Okay I'm just guessing at that, but I'm a good guesser.

    I think your biggest leak is that you don't respect the game. What I mean is that it's not very high on your list of priorities, like say your school work. It's probably because you didn't grow up really poor or whatever so your drive is probably more towards something like making your family proud or socializing than being financially independent at a young age. Keep in mind I'm not judging, just an observation.

    It's a common theme. For further reading on the opposite, consult Machiavelli's idea of the "New Prince".
