Default Re: Why I play poker

NEVER, EVER tell the truth when you're asked a question like that at an interview. Your answer cannot help you by showing depth to your personality, it can only hurt you, so try to say something as mundane and boring as possible. A question like that is only meant to screen out "unwanteds," and you definately set of an alarm bell! [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

As someone who interviews and hires people, I wouldn't be turned off by your answer (obviously), but I can attest that any questions about you other than your competency for the job are for negative purposes. Beware.
