Re: busto
He's saying that the skills could be useful, not utilizing poker on a resume. You wouldn't have to ever make an issue of the fact that you've played poker, simply applying some of the skills you've learned at the table might help. This in and of itself is debatable, but thats the reasoning.
As far as the irrational love affair with casino poker, where in the world do you get this from? This entire site is obsessed with online multitabling. People here hate live poker, don't respond to HH's from it, and constantly rip on how the highest levels are equivalent to .01-.02 online (not even close to being true). Certain people simply like a live dynamic more, or dislike online for XYZ reason. No one is disputing the fact that more hands per hour are available, at lower rake, etc.
It's not that simple to say that he can play Hold Em till he's 28, stop, go to grad school, and wash away 7-8 jobless years.
