CASINO GIRLS

The online casino poker gambling industry is going places these days, even into countries where poker is not regarded very highly. A ladies poker team in Croatia is making every attempt to change the perspective of poker, and have now launched a new Poke Rica Ladies Team. They are keen to have more and more women join the team with a dual objective in mind, one to build a community and the other to cultivate the skill. Though Croatia is not yet a part of the European Union, the country is growing at a fast pace and becoming a home for many tourists. (more…)

Lacey Jones is not just a talented poker player but she has been labeled several times as the “Poker Hottie”! Lacey is a certified poker babe, model, actress and TV hostess. To top it off all she has beauty and brains and was recently nicknamed the Poker Barbie.

Jones started playing poker as a kid when on vacation with her family in South Carolina. The Jones Clan usually spent their time at their beautifully designed beach house playing poker all night. At the age of 22, she graduated from the Arizonian University and made her way past the mainstream poker tournament on ESPN. She was actually hired as a model for these tournaments and since she possessed the right skill to tackle poker, the online poker overlords Absolute Poker hired her to represent them at some of the events. This was truly her big break into the poker world.

All she needed to do there was look pretty, but instead Lacey stunned her fellow players when she finished 32nd out of 360 players in the field. After this incident, Absolute Poker approached her once more, sponsoring the beauty to play along with Mark Self and to brush up on the finer points of the poker game.

The training seemed to be a big help and paid off well for Lacey’s next big events. She went on to cash in three tournaments in the year 2006. Starting from 2005, she participated in the World Series of Poker and still continues to do so every single year without fail. Her favorite games are 7 Card Razz and Seven Card Stud poker… Am guessing her favorite number is Seven!

In 2007, Lacey was asked to host and present the poker bracelet for the World Series of Poker event. The same year she hosted the U.S. Poker Bowl for Fox Sports and the Borgata Poker Open. Lacey Jones is considered the Woman of Poker and the Poker Barbie. The now 30 year old plans on going to law school and still continue to do what she does best.

Thanks to the legal excuse involving discrimination laws, 65-year old Abraham Kortotki along with several other men who were allowed to participate in the “Ladies” No Limit Texas Holdem Poker event that was held in Atlantic City. Not only did he get lucky entering the tournament but this 65-year old had nothing stopping him from winning the tournament. Now is this fair or what?

Well, Nicole Rowe who came in second place didn’t think so! She even made a disappointing attempt to split winnings with Kortotki, who obviously rejected her proposal. Kortotki’s win was a legitimate one as few of the men were legally allowed to sign up and take part in the poker tournament. To cool off things a bit, the poker winner has promised to contribute about $20,900 of his cash prize towards breast cancer charity, coincidentally a condition Nicole Rowe was diagnosed with.

I don’t see the need for the unusual “ladies” poker tournament. What’s the purpose in that? Men and women should have a chance of playing at any of the co-ed events at the Borgata tournament and it is quiet fair that Abraham Kortotki be offered the chance to be a winner.

If you are looking for a good online casino to play at (where there is no discrimination) then you can choose your favorite poker game at Bodog Poker. Bodog offers you different types of tournaments like daily tournaments, beginner’s tournaments, freeroll tournaments, Bodog Poker Points tournaments and lots more. All you need to do is open an account at Bodog Poker and sign up at any of the available tournaments.

Try to switch on your radio….95% of chances you’ll have to listen to Lady GaGa singing “Poker Face”! Not that I don’t like the song…but man, can you have something else from time to time? I guess this is the reason why iPod have so much success…

But I have to admit that Lady Gaga conquered a corner in my heart….her song is about gambling so….I cannot help it, I like her barefaced attitude! Obviously when I meet my friends at the poker table they all love to sing Poker Face…with all the dancing moves….yeah, you can imagine!

But going back to our Lady Gaga, I tried to find on the net some more information about the connection between her and gambling and this is what I found, please read and make your own judgment. In an interview Lady GaGa said that while writing the lyrics for Poker Face she was thinking about all her ex boyfriends (all? How many?….mmmmhhhh I’m becoming envious). She told the magazine that she dated a lot of rock and roll guys, very keen on sex (don’t tell me…really??…unbelievable….), drinks (God, another surprise!) and gambling (ok this is better).

The lyrics of the song are about many different “topics”, Lady GaGa loves to gamble and so do her ex boyfriends, but there are hints about sex and booze. In another interview our Poker Face was asked about the meaning of “bluffin …with my muffin”…and guess what it means?! She said it was a nice way to refer to her vagina…(muffin – vagina…..I don’t see the connection, I’m getting old). She copied the line from another song she wrote years ago but that was never released (“Blueberry Kisses” was the title).

So here it is, a song which is not only about Poker, there is also some Texas Hold’em, a Russian Roulette (just not to get too bored), some casinos and ….”A little gambling is fun when you’re with me I love it”…. You know what Poker Face is a fun song…but I’ll never look to a muffin in the same way!
