Re: Poker and Job Interviews
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] I would prefer to leave it out because i think people are misinformed fools who will assume you have gambling issues. More importantly however, "Job.... interview?" [/ QUOTE ] Haha, not all of us play/run like gods on the poker table. I'm one of the many that will be slaving for the man. [/ QUOTE ] Until you win a few more Sunday 100k amirite? That said, I'd place it in your Resume complete with detailed Financial statistics (ROI, $/hour if good). Basically make it sound big. Don't post bad stats, obviously. If it comes up, bring up math and evaluating skills, nothing else. If they're big into poker it'll be fine. If not, you can convince them otherwise. Guys, I had a videogame guild I was a part of on my Resume; if you can talk about yourself correctly and bring out your strengths, you could have baby raper listed as a hobby and get away with it.

Re: Poker and Job Interviews
I'd leave it off of the resume and feel out the interviewer to see if it'd be wise to bring it up. You can usually tell if someone will view poker as degeneracy or see it as 'cool' or maybe even recognize the skill it takes to consistently win, appreciates the merits of that skill, etc etc.
Also, whoever mentioned that it was job-dependent was right.
