Tournament Cash = Happy Maria Ho

ricky-bobby

ricky-bobbyAndrew Cimpan is probably happy he won the LA Poker Classic tournament especially with  Chris “Sweet  Baby Jesus” Ferguson cashing at the final table.  And not too shabby were the former Girl on Girls, Maria Ho and Erica Schoenberg, cashing as well. But as Ricky Bobby (see photo) says… “If you ain’t first, you’re last.”

I’m not sure about everyone else but I do know Ho was happy about her play considering the cards she was dealt during the tournament.  We had a nice chat on the bittersweet topic of… yeh, cashing is great but winning is more fun.  Or something like that.  You know the feeling… it’s always exciting to get into the money but then… well… it’s just not first place.  Despite Ricky Bobby’s (pre-cougar) moto, we agreed that there’s always something nice about cashing a tournament with horrible cards and a constant short stack.

Bluff Magazine Likes Poker Chicks

Bluff Magazine went sexy* when they put Lacey Jones and Christina Lindley on the cover.  Sure, we love reading about Doyle Brunson and Chris "Sweet Baby Jesus" Ferguson but I can't imagine that men ONLY want to read about men.  OK, maybe some men.

Nonetheless, the December issue of Bluff is just around the corner and yours truly will be interviewing one sexy poker hottie.  Yep, remember the Girl on Girl stuff over on WCP? More soon, as I still want to pimp my friend Ms. Jones.

*Sexy Info:

Jones and Lindley wore lingerie.  Lingerie (AKA underwear) is the same thing as a bikini but is made of more delicate fabric and sold in different sections of stores. 

High heels worn with bikini's and lingerie are optional but are often considered to be super sexy.

Some bikini's have labels stating the bikini shouldn't be worn in the water. 

Jones' lingerie covers more skin than most bikini's.  However, it's possible (somewhere) she could be arrested for wearing her outfit in public.

Every summer, millions of women wear bikini's at swimming pools, lakes, rivers and beaches.  In fact, these women do so in the presence of infants, toddlers, children, tweens, teenagers, young adults, adults, middle-aged adults and seniors.  However, these women are not arrested nor considered racey.
