I don't know if this has been mentioned in the thread or not but something I've heard is a concern (and can see why) is that playing poker is like running your own business. You are the one in control and the decision maker answering only to yourself. Someone from this background can be difficult to manage and supervise and have problems functioning in a team environment.

I have heard some very successful people say they would not want to hire someone who has run thier own business for a long time for the above reasons. 15 months isn't long, but this is just some food for thought.
