What does it have to do with CRT? They both have to do with interest in gambling, but what do they have to do with each other?
I was surprised to learn through your link that CRT correlates with interest in gambling. MIT students do dramatically better than Ivy league students on CRT, but I think of engineering students as conservative. ("MIT PhDs work for Harvard MBAs")
So that rules out MIT as Yvain's school ;)
In both cases, people often come to a solution that is dictated by intuition and opposed to very simple explicit analysis, and some people continue to insist on their intuitive solution even after the correct solution is explained to them.
