Negreanu's and Gus Hansen's segments were the biggest reasons I submitted this. Lady Luck isn't just fickle, she's child-eatingly insane.

It's not entirely luck. If you listen to him talk he spoke of how he had been playing poker for 40 hours a week since he was in 10th Grade, that is a long time to learn how to read people and to understand body language to the point where it can almost seem like a mystical talent.

Also, he gets to know those players. It's harder to read someone if you haven't played against them.

Lady Cold Reading doesn't have the same alliterative charm, that's why nobody invites her to the ball.

...chasing gutshots all day?

I chase hard eights and Unos.
