Default Re: My First College Interview

yeah, i elected not to just because the interviewer was a senior, so probably 22y/o black woman who i just didnt get the sense would see past the degen aspect. i can explain all that but my worry is that in an interview as in many other conversations, people think, "wait, you play poker, my uncle/brother/cousin lost all his money in poker, how can you take money from people?" or those kinds of things and just tune out anything else. also the fact that it is illegal for me to be playing poker. i really dont know how it would look on the extracurricular list. i've been playing seriously since the beginning of last summer and have moved up quite a bit, im just not sure if "i play only poker ilegally" is gonna be the first thing that comes to mind though
