The Myth of the Resume Gap

I would have to assume that when our hero says that he only worked 24 hours a week, he means what he says -- that he only worked 24 hours a week.

That's great, except it's not what our hero actually said

What he actually said was [ QUOTE ]
I never managed to average over 24 hours/week of play.

Hours of play does not equal hours of work, especially work in the sense most employers would use. The average 40hr/week job, with paid lunchbreaks probably requires less effort than a 24 hr week of multitabling online. Not to mention that 24 hrs of online play for some is equal to 200 hrs of online play for others.

More importantly though, for good players, there is a lot more to poker than this. There is study, and analysis of played hands.

It seems to me that you are not so much critical of the OP, as you are in some way bitter that you had it soooo rough with blackjack. Well that's too bad for you but it's not really relevant to this discussion.
