I'm with everyone else, take the job.

The bible of poker players is Doyle Brunson's Super System. Read through it a couple times and then just begin playing in small Limit games. That's the best way to learn.

I also bought all the books in the Interview section and checked out the Wall Street Culture section from the library. I also recommend buying the Hull book since that book is used by everyone. I call it the bible.

On my list for this year are the HP TouchPad, the Pre 3, Amazon Kindle and the HP Envy 14 (although I'm waiting for a new version).
