Guess she meets all these contacts at those celebrity poker events?
I heard lots of reference to her being the best poker player in the world last night and I call BS. I probably wouldn't even have her in a top twenty current list and she probably wouldn't show up til later in a top fifty of all time. No doubt she is a great player and the second best best female player (See Jennifer Harman for number one) but I think she's been a little overstated in this thing.
