This may be a stupid question, but how will they find out? I know they run background checks and stuff, but unless you tell them I don't think they're going to find anything. And if they can somehow find out that you play on stars are whatever, quitting now probably won't make a difference, the damage has been done.

Did you use a check or credit card to fund your account? Did you purchase Poker Tracker or poker books with your card? Did you ever cash out and have money sent to you from a poker account? When you go to a casino do you use a players card that tracks all of your play and how much time you spend there. Did you ever gamble with any of your friends, family or anyone who knows you? Can you be sure they will all be able to hide the fact they know you play poker? Are you the member of a gambling forum with 4092 post that can be looked up? The back ground check will find out. The question is when they do find out will you explain your interest in gambling or will you never know if you were not accepted because you lied to the FBI, your potential employer.

Who knows. With a gaming back ground your first assignment may to track down internet gambling transactions.
