Glasnost.
Current PokerStars NAPT host and former Wicked Chops Girl of the Year Joanna Krupa just dropped one of her best photo shoots in years, proving to women everywhere you can still look amazing even at 31.
The pics are published in the land of Natalia Nikitina for MAXIM Russia. Thumbnail #4 is particularly ridiculous.

Okay, here’s the video of Joanna Krupa showing Joe Sebok how to do the Lambada during yesterday’s ep of Poker2Nite.
Or maybe it’s them wrestling. Hard to tell.
After you view it once, go back and watch Scott Huff’s expressions the whole time. Pretty much sums up the moment.

Unfortunately that vid isn’t up yet for some reason, but go here and hopefully it’ll be posted soon.

Our favorite kind of Joanna Krupa photo spread
We’ll give the Joanna Krupa-hosted NAPT kick off event at the Venetian a little more love. Mainly for the sake of posting the above pic of Joanna Krupa.
And sharing this link.
So yeah, as the headline above subtly reveals, Ashton Griffin took down the $25,000 buy-in High-Roller Bounty Shootout, beating out a final table that included Hoyt Corkins, Joe Cassidy, Scott Seiver, Faraz “No Fly List” Jaka, Brett Richey and Peter Eastgate.
In case you missed it, the event was an invite-only shootout with seven tables featuring mostly big name pros. Players got $5k bounties for each player they knocked out and an extra $75k for winning their table. The player with the most bounties grabbed an extra $100,000. In the end that honor went to Scott Seiver who impressively busted the 6 other players at his first table and two more at the final table.
Here’s the order of finish, final payouts and number of bounties for each player.
1. Ashton Griffin – $560,000 (6)
2. Hoyt Corkins – $100,000 (5)
3. Joe Cassidy – $95,000 (4)
4. Scott Seiver – $215,000 (8)
5. Faraz Jaka – $95,000 (4)
6. Brett Richey – $90,000 (3)
7. Peter Eastgate – $85,000 (2)

Putting Emmanuelle Chriqui at #1 almost, ALMOST, makes up for the omission of Vikki Blows.
First, on the list were Joanna Krupa at an almost-completely-discrediting-the-list-low #77, former WPT hostess Layla Kayleigh at #25, and Keeley Hazell at #22.
And in a surprise at #1? WCP (and Pauly) fave Emmanuelle Chriqui. Well done, there, Ask Men.
However, not making the list? Vikki Blows. How the fuck does that (not) happen?
Other notables include Arianny Celeste (#98), Sasha Grey (#97), Gina Carano (#68), Kim Kardashian (#42), Mila Kunis (#32), Megan Fox (#11), and Marisa Miller (#2).
View the full list here.
