Default Re: How does \'poker\' reflect on a resume?

[ QUOTE ]
I think their is a problem with mentioning the poker.
If he believes you failed at poker, he will think you are a degenerate gambler/idiot.
If he believes you are a winning player, he will think you get bored easily and won't last long.

[/ QUOTE ]

A few more reasons not to mention poker on a resume (unless you have a major final table finish) are:

A male interviewer may be jealous that you attempted what he cannot attempt...

A female interviewer may have a husband, son, boyfriend, whatever that lost a bundle on poker...

It may be feared that you will steal from the company to finance your poker playing...
