  • xxx college NL Texas Hold'em champion

If you put on the poker stuff, be prepared for plenty of odds questions, like the number of outs you have in a given hand. If you are really good, it should display you've got good probability skills- a plus. If you can't show off your odds skills, then it's pretty useless to put on.
