Would you mention poker in a job interview?

[Henke]

There has been some debate concerning the "status" of poker players on this forum recently. I'm about to graduate from university and look for jobs in the technical research/developement field. This has made me think about how to deal with my "hobby" in a job interview. Because most people don't know anything about poker, I doubt that the interviewer will see that poker is an analytical and strategic game, but might instead see it as something negative.

What would you do in this situation? Or have you perhaps been in this situation? What was the reaction? And did you get the job? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
