Personal Quote

I think to be a good poker player you have to have a good memory. If you don't have a good memory, you are not going to make it. What happens is that you don't consciously, actually memorize. It is all subconscious. Say I see someone at a table make a bet who has not gotten involved in a hand in over an hour. My subconscious will tell me if he has it or not. It isn't a conscious thing that I am working to do, it is because of all the hours of practice. It becomes what we call a 'gut feeling'. If you listen to that, it will work for you 99% of the time.
