Poker on CV

charlesb · #1 01-04-2005, 09:47 AM

I have recently started winning a bit but as I am a university graduate I am looking for a job at least for the time being.

What do you think, should I include it to my CV that I play poker?

I'd imagine that older bosses would reckon it as a waste of time because it's not possible to win from gambling.

Whereas younger ones would think that this person must be a good worker as he's definitely used to making tough decisions and has a nerve of steel.

Of course, they don't necessarily have to be in different age groups but in those groups anyway and maybe there are others as well? No offence to anyone but what about woman bosses? I know how my fiancee and most of my friends' react to playing...
