How Do I Build A "Poker" Resume?

[Burdzthewurd]

Hey all, I'm trying to get a job/internship doing write-ups for live coverage at the WSOP this year, and would like some advice on how to insert my poker experience into a resume applying for this position. I vaguely recall parts of the Cardplayer application last year about a writing sample or two, like a player interview and a final table hand-for-hand transcript. The interview I can do, and I figure I can transcribe some televised tournament if need be.

Here are some things that may be relevant:
- Two televised final table appearances
- Run local tournaments for 2+ years
- Moderator on a poker forum
- Poker documentary appearance
- Keep a poker blog of original articles

I know that's not too impressive, but any other advice?

You're religious and go to Church every Sunday. The Church of Patrik Antonius that is.

Sigh, maybe I should try one shot at humor like that.

I think this is plenty. The writing samples will make or break you. Focus on those.
