So you're the dude who carries water and a sponge?

[/ QUOTE ]

I dunno what sponge you speak of, but usually interns and students are the waterboys. One of the big reasons an internship in pro sports blows.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nothing wrong with carrying a sponge

personally, i would never be a pro poker player or work in the stock market because i think it's a culture competely obsessed with money, which is something i could never understand.

Yet you spend an ungodly amount of time studying/playing a game where your goal is nothing but to take money from other people.

I would wish to defend the cause of a poker pro.
In my natural language it's not so easy to explain why I keep honor with what I do, even when they are very "clever" but more very " in a system "

If those don't happen to work out for you, three other applicable majors that will prepare you for the real world are Psychology, French, and Geology.

Educational designer in higher education. I build and help instructors build pedagogically sound online courses. And actually, I just got a new job!! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I want to hear from more poker pros. We've only heard from 3 or 4 so far. There GOTTA be a large number of pros on this forum... no?
