In a recent interview with Gaming Intelligence, Laurent Tapie said that he hopes to have a re-branded Full Tilt Poker launched by March 1. Ok then. There’s a better chance of Layne Flack repaying his debt...

As most of you know, Arianny Celeste is the smoking hot UFC ring girl, and her Playboy spread is one of the more “highly anticipated” ones in years.
Now the above video is not her in Playboy, but you’ll get the gist of what you’ll see (minus the clothes). Below are our not necessarily just poker news link dump for the day.

:: New vlog from Daniel Negreanu from the set of his PokerVT commercial. [link]
:: The Heartland Poker Tour is celebrating its 5th anniversary and Greg Raymer is hosting their celebratory party…because…you know, Greg Raymer likes to throw down. [link]

Ryan Jenkins, 32, who was a contestant on the VH1 show called Megan Wants a Millionaire (the same show that Layne Flack was trying to get on, but there was the little problem of actually needing to be a millionaire), is reportedly a “person of interest” in the murder of Playboy model Jasmine Fiore, whom he married two days after meeting her in a Vegas strip club.
“28 year old Jasmine Fiore vanished after a poker tournament in San Diego. Fiore was allegedly there with Jenkins and reports are the two were husband and wife, secretly married in Las Vegas. Police confirm Jenkins was the one who reported Fiore missing Saturday night, just hours after her body was discovered in a bloody suitcase, thrown away like trash at a Buena Park apartment complex dumpster…but then Jenkins went missing. There are two vehicles of interest in the search for Jenkins…Fiore’s white 2007 Mercedes CL S550 and Jenkins’ black BMW X5.”
We’re assuming this was a charity poker tournament of some sorts in San Diego. Any of our readers in attendance?
Tiffany Michelle's rack never looked bigger than at the 2008 WSOP Main Event.
2008 WSOP Main Event Last Woman StandingTMTiffany Michelle, a woman, has told us that she's been approached by PlayboyMagazine. They wanted to see if she's interested in renewing her subscription for just $19.95 a year but she'd have to act today. No, we kid. The not-so-relevant-since-the-dawn-of-free-Internet-porn men's mag has asked Tiffany if she's interested in doing a nude pictorial.
Said Tiffany:
"Obviously we passed on the
offer to do the mag… well not 'obviously' but the nude thing isn't
really my vibe or the next step for my career. I'm all about sexy
photo shoots just not nudie Playboy shoots. Plus, let's be honest the
largest rack I've ever had is when I was sittin' behind
9-something-mill at the WSOP."
While we generally like girls to get naked for us this is probably a smart move for Tiffany. Unless you're banging Hef, land a reality TV show and then sleep with third-option NFL receivers and creepy Vegas magicians, Playboy doesn't do much to further a girl's career as it once did, which wasn't really much before to begin with. Just look how posing for Playboy catapulted Jennicide's career…to nowhere. Now dropping a sex tape on the Internet while expressing moral outrage that it got out even though you're the one who leaked it, that's money in the bank.
Relatedly, a current tally of hot poker players who've bared all for us: Shannon Elizabeth, Jennifer Tilly, Brandi Hawbaker, Erica Schoenberg, Rhowena Colclough, Jennicide and Joanna Krupa.
Let us dumb this down. Italian TV is loaded with insanely hot chicks. Perhaps the hottest in the world, all with ridiculously perfect culos that rank right up there with Brazil’s best, long, stately legs that make Shannon Elizabeth look like an amateur and gorgeous faces that … well, who really cares about faces. And Lithuanian supermodel Agne Stankunaite (yeh, unfortunate last name) is hands down the hottest one we’ve seen in the past cinque minuti. See photos of Agne below, and a super hot video of her on Italy’s Ciao Darwin TV show here.
