I don't know much about how to word your resume for it, but if you can demonstrate to a firm that you made a good living playing msnl or hsnl, you can get a job even if your highest education level is 4th grade.
i'm not a trader but i've heard that this is not necessarily true now. i wish it were.. we could all just go sign up for jobs.

I had a friend who is a poker player/trader who said he has had whole interviews where he was asked nothing but poker-related questions. They were in quite a bit more depth than the std questions too and exhibited decent knowledge of the game.

thanks dude, but i guess the pics of the naked bartender in the hot tub got taken off?

You dont need to speak french at all, but Id recommend living on the island of Montreal and not anywhere else. Quebec city is like 100% french, south of Montreal (where I live) is 60-70% french. Montreal is like 20% french lol. But everyone speak English on the island. Id still learn a few words in french if I was you, its a really hard language so dont think you're just going to come here and learn it "just like this", it wont work.

Montreal is basically full of everything. We've got people from around the globe and everyone love everyone. Its a multi ethnicity unlike Quebec city. Its a party city, the nightlife is amazing, we've plenty of top notch restaurants (any type), the girls are hot and rly friendly. The reason why id learn french words is to meet Quebec french girls. They're the best. Everyone is friendly and theres festival left and right on the island. The casino is at 10mins of downtown. We also have 3 indian poker rooms, 20-30mins from downtown. higher stakes being played there vs casino on weekend.

Theres also the NHL playoffs right now. hockey is our sport. If we win the Stanley cup (unlikely but never know) people are going to put cars on fire, will throw T.V in local shops and the SQUAT cops are going to raid the streets. Im not leveling, it happened last year and we didn't even reach the finals. Id go watch a game or two, the ambiance of the games in Montreal is unique and pretty fun.

If you have any specific questions on where exactly to live on the island, where to put cars on fire during the playoffs or whatnot feel free to PM me!

seems like that would be ideal

i know a surprising number of people who play poker for a living who couldn't sit down and do a hand v. range equity calculation.

also, i'm convinced by now that Canadians are friendlier than Americans. not sure why, but that has consistently been my experience.

lol I thought that was a well known fact?

is it sketchy that somebody named BLEWJOB (guy by that name played Krantz on 2M2MM on UB and won some) happened to be at BBJ hitting table playing 1/2 limit (granted it is Carbon, not UB)?

I mean Montreal is a great city
The 4 months of the year when you're not hibernating because it's too cold to go outside

It's also sickly sticky humid in the summer
04-22-2011 , 12:35 AM
Montreal can be a great city, especially if you know people. To live there might be a bit of a culture shock for some Americans, thats all... If you do decide to live there, go for the west downtown side of Montreal Island. You'll be close to the universities and a large english speaking community.

Montreal is as to Toronto, as Vegas is to LA... It's where we go to party hard in secrecy.
