I've been watching clips of the older WSOP tournaments with Daniel Negreanu in them. His play style and ability to read people are ridiculous!
He just straight up knows what they have! Is it just on betting style alone? It's just hard to fathom being able to pay attention to what.. 6-8 other people at the table and still manage to read each of them.
Not to mention their were a few times were I swear I heard him say "I know you have AQ, I'm gonna call anyway." WTF!? lol
Can that stuff be learned?
It's beyond human like!

After playing with people for hours , sometimes even earlier if you've done what your suppose to be doing. You've felt out all of the players at your table.
By this time you should know, betting patters, player styles.
. aggresive, tight, superaggresive, etc.
That and you must have a good poker sense. Basically you need to be able to get inside the heads of your opponents. Think about all that you've learned untill this point from them. That way you know have a good chance of being right on the money when you make your decisions.
And yes it can be learned, but its all about practice, practice , practice.
Experience is the best tool in poker.
he has a sixth sense
He is just a good player that knows whats going on around him. You could do it do if you just pay attention to the other players.
it can be scary at ttimes to hear him call a persons hole cards out like he had xray vision it can be learned if you concentrate on the people at tables (mostly live if possible) and can remember the way they play certian cards and how they react to your play when they have certain cards. and practice that cannot be stressed to much good luck and see ya later
if you saw every hand he ever played, and made a guess...you would see, he is wrong alot more...everyone is.
but it makes for good TV if he can get a few right on tape..
