Poker winnings on resume

[PRE]

I actually think putitng poker under "interests" is a very good idea IF you have a very solid resume besides that (good grades, internships, etc.). Poker actually helped me get my current job, but 99% of the other people I interviewed with loathed it.

This is exactly what someone told me. He said he was told they were hiring him because his poker background set him apart from the other similar candidates. He also said that his firm used poker as one of there primary methods for training.
