This will be a quick blog since there is so much madness surrounding the upcoming World Series of Poker AND because I’m WIPED out from the exhausting day I had.
I drove up to Vegas yesterday and moved into my home for the summer that I’m renting along with Maria Ho during our next few WSOP months. I was up bright and early this morning to head over to the penthouse at Hard Rock where I did a “hot girls of poker” photo shoot with Evelyn Ng and Erica Shoenberg for Knockout magazine. We had a fun time together getting the chance to be a little sexier than we usually are at the poker tables. I jetted straight from the photo shoot to catch a flight to LA which was grounded along with all of the rest of the flights from Vegas since President Obama was arriving in town. I was a bit peeved at my flight being delayed since I was already late getting back to LA for a meeting but getting to see Air Force One land was quite amazing… you don’t see THAT everyday!
Last time I blogged I was playing some really good poker resulting in consistent online cashes and final tables. My streak has continued and I recently took 32nd place in the first event at Commerce’s Cal State Poker Championships out of 1,800 players. I’m hoping this “good poker” trend carries into the WSOP, my first event will be on Saturday. I have realistic expectations for this year’s WSOP knowing how large the fields are in each tournament but that doesn’t mean I won’t remain optimistic. I’ve got my sights set on winning myself a purty little bracelet for my birthday next week! I’ll keep you posted.
(The photo below is one that I snapped on my phone with Erica and Evelyn at our photo shoot today.)

February wasn’t a terribly exiting poker month so lets talk about the exciting things that are going on in my life away from the tables!
On the acting side of my career things seem to be picking up. I’ve had a few super cool auditions this week. One was for a Matt Damon movie to play his leading love interest. I mean, it’s no Rounders sequel but I don’t think any of us poker fans want to see them even attempt that! At least if I shot a movie with Matt I know I wouldn’t be bored in between takes since I’d have a poker pal on set to play with.
My management just confirmed that I’ll be joining Erica Schoenberg and Evelyn Ng for a ‘sexy poker chick’ photo shoot in April for Knockout Magazine. .. in BIKINIS. Yikes, I’d better stay away from the French fries and try to get some good workouts in between the long hours sitting on my butt at the poker tables.
Speaking of magazines I recently shot the March cover of Rounder magazine! We did a sexy, fun and funky photo shoot in Vegas at Panorama Towers a few weeks ago. I love getting all dolled up for a photo shoot especially since everyone usually only sees me hiding under a hat or hoodie at a poker table surrounded by a bunch of men. It’s refreshing to step away from the game for a moment and be 100% girlie. I’m definitely looking forward to doing more with the magazine in the future, possibly a special issue during the WSOP. Be sure to pick up your March copy!
At the end of month I’ll be playing in the Dream Team Poker tournament at Caesars palace along with my girls Maria Ho and Lacey Jones. We have given ourselves the team name “Yo Mama”… cracks me up every time I say it! Anyone interested in creating their own team and participating is welcome to do so, you can visit the Dream Team’s website for more info.
Other than that I’m just gearing up for the World Series and will be popping in some events at the WPT Five Star tournament next month as well as the WSOP Caesars Circuit event to warm up my little fingers for a summer of poker! Stay tuned!
Here’s a sneak peek of a picture I snapped real quick with my phone while on
