The last thing I want is to tell people what I do. I usually say sheepishly, "I... just... play poker" with a shrug of my shoulders.
I will start saying, "I'm unemployed but play poker for money".
I could just say, "I'm unemployed" but then they will ask what my profession is, or what industry I'm in. What is the best reply to that? I'm in the card industry, no, that will bring on more questions. How about, "I work at the casino as a player"?
