Ante Up for Africa WSOP Photos

Lots of ways you can go with this... have fun

The pic above is from Saturday’s WSOP Ante Up for Africa charity poker tournament that Phil Gordon won and Shannon Elizabeth, a woman, finished second in. We can only assume the guy making his move on Shannon finished third. Caption away.

Below’s the complete gallery from the AUFA tournament. Lots of other great “Caption This” potential including this awesome pic.

Brad Garrett (right, above) was one of the celebs on the red carpet today.

The 2010 WSOP Ante Up for Africa poker tournament, hosted by Don Cheadle and Annie Duke, a woman, took place today, and as usual lots of big name celebs and big name poker pros showed up to support those in need in warn-torn parts of Africa.

Our photographer Newby took a shit-ton of pics during the day; you can expect to see a few posts between now and Monday (busy weekend here with 4th of July and poker site parties), including one post just of this ridiculously hot Italian model. For now, here are some he snapped for us on the red carpet, including pics of the aforementioned Annie Duke and Don Cheadle, Matt Damon, Evander Holyfield, Jerome BettisMontel Williams, Brad Garrett, David Alan GrierJoe Reitman, Shannon Elizabeth, Shane Warne and the last year’s Last Woman Standing at the WSOP Main Event, Leo Margets.

David Williams Signs with PokerStars; Shannon Elizabeth Signs with Carbon


Time to put a PokerStars cap on that head...

PokerStars has an impressive roster. No doubt about it. Even the random Euros they’ve signed that we’ve never heard of are smart choices on Stars’ end, because people who live in those Eastern block countries we’ve never heard of that are into weird porn know and like the aforementioned Euros we’ve never heard of before, so, you know, gooooo Marketing!

However, one thing Stars has been missing is a brother.

And a lesbian.

Until now.

PokerStars has scooped up a fresh-off-his-WPT-Championship win David Williams, and a fresh-off-her-NAPT-win, Vanessa Selbst. Good score for Stars as both are respected pros that can broaden their marketing reach.

In related but kind of unrelated news, Carbon Poker has signed a fresh-off-her-taking-a-rake-in-her-Hollywood-home-game Shannon Elizabeth to a sponsorship deal. This makes Shannon’s 47th endorsement deal (give or take) in poker. Read about it here.

Shannon Elizabeth Taking a Rake?


Collecting rake? Can't be true, can it?

We can’t stand Perez Hilton and don’t understand why people read his shit (especially when similar sites like this exist). He’s also been axe-grinding with Shannon Elizabeth for awhile, and the emailer to Perez sounds like he’s got an agenda (hell, it’s probably Perez emailing himself), so we’ll take the below info from his site with a grain of salt, if that’s the proper metaphor. But it’s been passed along enough to us that we gotta mention it (thanks to everyone who sent the link along).

Copy+paste:

Holy shiz, if this is true, then shame on you, Shannon Elizabeth!

A Perezcious reader just e-mailed us this crazy story regarding the z-lister!

They write:

So a few friends and I were invited to a house poker game in Los Feliz last Friday, and it turned out to be Shannon Elizabeth’s house. Her address is XXXX XXXXXXXX Way, Los Angeles. Anyways, this is kind of cool and we at first think it’s really a treat to be playing poker with her, but it turns out she’s not even playing, she’s just coming in and out and collecting money from people and taking an illegal rake for the house. One pot I was in had only $70 dollars in it, but the dealer took $25 dollars out for the house…..? Anyone who plays poker knows this is nuts.

I was like “WTF? Why are you taking that out?” He said, “It’s for the house.”

“What the hell is there left to play for, why is it so much?” He said, “You’re in the presence of greatness,” referring to Shannon.

So my friends and I didn’t end up staying too long after that. She’s so busted apparently that she has to rip poker players off with her D-List status and rob us blind at the poker tables by raking way too much. First off, it’s illegal, second off, she’s out of her mind to think she can rake that much just because of who she was. She was just a naked girl in a popular movie. Nothing more. The few times I have played with her, she’s thrown childish hissy fits, and stormed off, throwing cards and chips. She’s mean, immature, disrespectful, and just an all around shallow greedy has-been.

Since Perez doesn’t link to other sites (ah-hem, PND), we won’t link directly to the post, but you can find it on PerezHilton.com.

Joanna Krupa and Derek Hough Have A Cinemax Moment


Poor Shannon Elizabeth.

If our current/first wives were to leave us, and then the next day were selected to be on Dancing with the Stars AND got paired up with Derek Hough, and then for the next three months every single week over 20 million people had to watch as Derek either simulates sex acts or fantasizes about sex acts–including a beach scene similar to where we first actually did some making out with said current/first wife–it would REALLY upset us… if we were actually watching and not doing blow and banging anything with two legs* and a vagina.**

Because the above scenario minus the last 18 words is basically what Shannon Elizabeth is going through right now each and every week.

In related news, one-time poker player/full-time super model Joanna Krupa got the top score again.

* Not necessarily a requirement.
** A requirement.
