With the launch of her new website, http://www.serindaswan.com, Serinda will be doing some WSOP reporting. Watch out Amanda Leatherman and Tiffany Michelle, Serinda is coming to town! New galleries and reports will be posted from this Canadian beauty.

Who will be a first to put together a "Reporters of the WSOP" spread. FHM, Maxim, Playboy? We want it, we neeed it...or that's what myhomies tell me...heh.

So I was reviewing my weblogs and found that many of you were searching for Amanda Leatherman, that cute little Pokerwire reporter. The good news is Amanda does have a MySpace page and she does appear in a bikini on it. The bad news is there is not much else on the web and she is dating someone who acts like a cock gobbler. Why can't her agent get her an FHM spread?

Oh, and another site search favorite Jenny Woo or Susan Evatt was recently in a pillow fight, see below.

“As any true Playboy player knows it's not only the winning that counts - it's who you
knock out on the way!”

Picture the scene - you are in a tournament, playing the best poker of your life and have already knocked out five players. You are almost at the final table and now find yourself all-in with pocket aces. You take a horrible beat and walk away with a few cents more than your buy-in. This won’t happen in a Headhunter tournament, where you earn cash for every player you eliminate, AND still receive your share of the prize pool for making it to the money! Take your seat in a Headhunter tournament and find out if you're a predator or if you're the prey. It’s a jungle out there, go hunting but don’t lose your head!

HOW TO PLAY
The Headhunter Challenge is a new type of multi-table tournament where a player truly becomes a hunter and wins cash for every player they eliminate. A portion of every buy-in is assigned to players’ “Heads”. Anyone who knocks a player out of the tournament will receive cash. The more players someone eliminates, the more cash they win – and the bigger a target they become – as the value of their own head increases with every head they take!

All players who enter a Headhunter tournament pay the same buy-in + entry fee. The prize pool is then divided, with a portion being allocated to heads, and the rest going towards the standard prize pool. Although it’s configurable, the standard Headhunter tournament will award 50% of the prize pool based upon heads that are knocked out and 50% as the regular prize pool.

He also admits that the reason Poker Stars signed Daniel Negraneau was to give him someone to beat. Didn't Barry slam on Daniel for his lack of skills in the Wynn series they played? Hmm...was Barry trying to complement Daniel on his choice of sites? What is Barry saying?

Barry = Internet Donkey
Daniel = Bigger Internet Donkey
Poker Stars Players = Can't get money on the site, so can't take advantage of High Stakes Donkeys?

Trashy Brandi is back and bashing poker beauty Chantel McNutly. There was a post on 2+2 about a guy saying she saw Chantel talking to one of Brandi's old boyfriends. Brandi obviously read the thread and decided to comment and bash Chantel. Here is what she had to say:

I have never dated, nor would I ever date, any man who would be classless and tasteless enough to be with her or even stick it in her dirty hole.

Don't get me wrong, I think women are beautiful and I love new experiences, but this girl skeeves me out. She even draws her eyebrows on and has gross alien size, hard-as-a-rock bowling bowls on her chest (which surprisingly, she finds sexy and lets everyone feel up -- INCLUDING floor supervisors at the Rio.)

So it looks like there is quite a feud going on between these two girls. Do you think that they would do a head's up strip poker match? I think some brilliant promoter could make some money off of this. Let's get it on!

If interested in the WSOP rumors/legends, check out some of the posts here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=gossip&Number=10709681&page=0&fpart=all

Here's a sample:

More observations from the RIO....

-Capt. Tom Franklin enjoying a massage from a busty masseuse. No "huggles" or "penis on back" but the Captain was sporting some serious ass crack. Gross.

-Dutch Boyd got fat.

-Rumors circulating that last year's wonderkid Jeff Madsen owes $150,000 to Gavin Smith. Apparently both agreed to a crossbook bet and Gavin scored big with a second place finish in the pot limit event.

-Chau Giang seen stacking 3 chairs so that he could sit comfortably at his table. Chau really is a lovable little guy.

-Chip Reese giving some of his famous "Chip talk" to John Juanda..."John you really play well...you should come by and play in the Big game at the Bellagio...we play all of your best games" Many a sucker have been financially casterated after the "Chip talk".

-David Sklansky walking around with a really cute young black woman. David is quite the player.

-Shannon Elizabeth sighting...walking around with Joe Sebok. What a body!!! Shannon's isn't bad either. HEY OHHH!!

-Sheiky walking out of the Amazon Room after busting out at 3:00 a.m. and screaming at the top of his lungs, "Why do I play in these fukin tournaments!". I think we have been asking the same question about Sheiky for quite some time.

-Somebody please tell Full-Tilt pro Andy Bloch that he needs to lose the black straw Full-Tilt cowboy hat. It makes his face look stupid. I can't tell him because I'm a puss-y and I'm fearful he will hit the perma kill-switch on my Full Tilt account. But somebody needs to have a sit down with the dude.

-Scotty Ngyuen hanging out in the 100 degree vegas heat in his black leather jacket as he chatted up some young females. Keep Michelob coming baby.

-Tony G. sighting...he was in great spirits and playing his "A" game according to his table talk during the Stud tourney.

-Phil Hellmuth acting weird in the hallway as he chatted on his cell.

-Greg Raymer playing some Omaha cash games. Gotta love Raymer for being a class act....but he's got to lose the ankle socks and sandals. NO WSOP WORLD CHAMP SHOULD EVER BE CAUGHT WEARING ANKLE SOCKS AND SANDALS!!!

-"Miami" John Cernutto walking around in his sh-it stained miami hurricanes sweatpants...Didn't Seinfeld say that going out in public in dirty sweatpants is a sign that you have given up on life ?

more to come............................

Move over Seebok/Leatherman, Schoenberg/Benjamine, and Taniello/Harman! A new couple is on the scene. They are the new Laurel and Hardy!

Check out this bad beat interview.

Phil goes on about bad, beats, being on top of his game and getting it all in with nines.

I didn't believe the rumors until I saw this series of pics.

Is this WSOP felling a ton more racey than the rest? Will Zalman King come out with a WSOP Diaries series soon?

She has recently been spotted with Jamie Gold.

http://wickedchopspoker.blogs.com/my_weblog/2007/06/is_jamie_gold_t.html

Who will she be with next? Why is the male poker world so facinated with her? Will Full Tilt Poker be getting her to the tables with FTP Pasties? Will anybody place a male appendage on her back?

The Poker Paparazzi has emerged and Brandi is in their sights! Heh.

She needs a speech coach, but she is hot. She claims to have the balls to do it!

How can we convince more to join her?

There seem to be only five remotely beautiful women interested in poker players these days: Tiffany Michelle, Amanda Leatherman, Brandi Hawbaker, Chantel McNulty and Erica Schoenberg. One ex-actress, one looks and sounds like a 13 year old, two psychos and one engaged/supposedly did a strip poker DVD. Wow the pickin's are slim. Which would you choose?

Juanda talks about drinking, cards, and doing his next interview with Amanda Paris Hilton style!

Looks like Chantel is back on the scene. This time she is mugging a Pokerwire reporter. Heh. Amanda Leatherman is pretty cute. ;-)

Watch Jeff Madsen in the background trying to disrupt the shoot.

Kendra Wilkinson and company could be yours, ok could meet yours after playing on Playboy Poker. Yes, one of the bonus's is lunch with the playmates. Another is an intive to a party at the Playboy Mansion!

Just a reminder that satellites to the Playboy Poker's £500K Golden Cup Series of Poker are running daily.
Check out the schedule here.

It looks to be a great series of guaranteed tourneys. They have never done this before, therefore there might be some overlays. So save you poker bank roll for next weeks tournies that begin on Monday, June 4th and run through to Sunday, June 10th.

With the kickoff of the 2007 World Series of Poker Main Event now only a few weeks away, the major online poker sites are breaking out all the stops to send players to fabulous Las Vegas. One such site is Full Tilt Poker, which is once again offering its players the deal of a lifetime: a tournament with the opportunity to capture one of 100 guaranteed seats into the Main Event. You read that right – 100 WSOP Main Event seats guaranteed. Each seat is worth a balmy $10,000 and you also get $2,000 worth of spending money. The buy in is $535 and the tournament takes place on Sunday, June 17th at 6:00pm ET.

One $535 tournament provides access to 100 guaranteed seats into the WSOP Main Event. If that weren’t enough, if you win your seat on Full Tilt Poker and then win the entire Main Event, Full Tilt will give you an extra $10 million. Take second or third and Full Tilt will give you $100,000. Make the final table and you’ll receive $50,000. There are a bevy of satellites available into the 100 Seat Main Event Guarantee for as low as $4.40 or 50 Full Tilt Points. You can find more information by checking out Full Tilt Poker. PocketFives Chief Editor Adam Small comments on the Full Tilt Main Event seat giveaway: “Last year, a lot of P5ers were able to capitalize on the huge qualifiers on Full Tilt and Stars, which both took place about 10 days before the main event. Longtime P5er Cmitch actually finished 9th in the Full Tilt qualifier and got an extra hotel room for doing so. When it’s down to the last minute and you don’t have a WSOP seat yet, this tournament is the best chance anyone has to get to go and participate in something special.”

Other ways to get into the Main Event through Full Tilt include accumulating 3,000 Full Tilt Points for any week (Thursday through Wednesday) through Wednesday, June 20. You’ll then be eligible to enter a freeroll that guarantees two Main Event seats and occurs the following Sunday. The last of these freerolls is Sunday, June 24. On Thursdays, check out the $1,060 tournament that guarantees at least five seats. This tournament runs at 9:00pm ET each Thursday through June 21. Finally, on Tuesdays at 9:00pm ET, check out the $322 buy in tournament that guarantees at least two seats each week. Satellites are available for each set of tournaments. The bottom line is that there are tons of ways to collect seats into the Main Event between now and right before the first cards are dealt at the Amazon Room at the Rio.

Check out the 100 Seat Guarantee on Sunday, June 17th at 6:00pm ET on Full Tilt Poker. With 100 seats on the line, why not take a shot? Visit Full Tilt Poker for more details.
