Not necessarily related to card games but as a hiring manager I do take into account non work related hobbies. For example, I played on a nationally ranked college club sport team(paintball) and was also the club president and team captain at the same time. This was on top of getting a dual-BA/MBA. Running the club and team was essentially the same as running a small business or medium sized department in a larger firm with a budget of $50K (this was all volunteer) and a "staff" of 20+ people. The experience taught me that anyone who has done: - full time college - played, at a minimum, a club sport or was part of a debate team, competitive dance whatever - was also an officer in said organization had the wherewithal to "volunteer" three times for activities that required a large amount of commitment, discipline and organizational abilities. In other words, they chose to do more than the people who were just students. I am, of course, biased because this was my background. That being said, I have always found a strong correlation between people with the trifecta of college/extracurricular/officer and the skills necessary to do well in a work setting. YMMMV
