If you are a Duke graduate, there is a good chance you can make it as a pro.

I found this statement hilarious on so many levels.

Why, I assume that what you hope being a dealer is a stepping stone too, unless you want to go into casino management.

On another site, some guy posted, who dropped out of college to be a dealer, hoping to be a pro. He got promoted to floorman and then became a cop. Being a floorman (floorperson) is probably good experience for being a cop.

You don't have to be a genious to be a professional poker player. If you are a Duke grad and have the interest, you may have the aptitude, if that's what you want to do. Professional poker players can make a lot more than dealers, and some make more than typical Duke graduates.
