Default Poker Actually Works on Resume

This is probably a niche thing, but the wall street trading desk I interviewed on really liked the fact that I played poker at the level I do. The ability to multitask a number of things, make quick decisions and commit capital to them, and then analyze those decisions at the end of the day to improve. It's exactly the same skill set needed for flow trading, and they are similair jobs in a lot of ways.
