Sexting Joslyn James Says She Worked for the WSOP

by Wicked Chops Entity on 3.22.2010 in Poker News | 2 comments

She definitely wasn't a dealer...

When we first read about the Sexting Joslyn James website, it was flooded with so much traffic that “one” couldn’t actually access it unless you had more patience to wait around for it to load than we did.

However, today isn’t so much of an issue.

Along with the awesomely awesome Tiger Woods sexts on the page, Joslyn also lists her resume. Here you go:

Her extensive career in the mainstream limelight has included numerous, high profile television shows, magazine and promotional appearances including: E! Entertainment TV, The Travel Channel, Dr. 90210, Sin City Diaries, Elimi-Date, Gene Simmons Family Jewels, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, World Series of Poker, 944 Magazine and Las Vegas Weekly to name just a few.

We can only assume here WSOP gig involved the Gaming Life Expo, but does anyone recall ever seeing her around?

Visit Sexting Joslyn James (surprisingly it’s SFW unless you count the texts about Tiger wanting to do anal then getting blown to be NSFW) here.

Tiger Woods Turns Down $75M Poker Endorsement Deal

by Wicked Chops Entity on 3.5.2010 in Poker News | 1 comment

Allegedly banging alleged mistresses like Jaimee Grubbs is why Tiger Woods is getting endorsement offers from gaming sites instead of Gatorade.

In a great publicity stunt that would’ve probably effed them in the A if he actually said, “Yes,” Tiger Woods reportedly turned down a $75M endorsement deal from PaddyPoker.com.

Maybe if his mainstream endorsers continue to drop him, Tiger would reconsider? In reality, we saw absolutely no chance. Although TMZ does report:

Paddy claims it’s planning to come back with an even sweeter offer in the near future.

Rachel Uchitel and Jaimee Grubbs Photos Brings You Today’s Poker Links

by Wicked Chops Entity on 12.2.2009 in Poker News | 9 comments

Tiger Woods' alleged mistress Rachel Uhitel assumes the position (to think we almost went with "We'd like to pull out our woods and drive our balls into Rachel Uchitel's trap")

Go ahead and caption this photo of Rachel Uchitel somehow using some or all of the following words: "Wood(s)," "Drive", "Trap," "Balls," "Rough," "Putter," "Wedge"

Been meaning to do this Rachel Uchitel pics (and now Jaimee Grubbs pics) post for a few days, but better late than never.

In case you’ve been under a rock or playing for 89 straight hours on Stars, Rachel Uchitel and Jamiee Grubbs are two of the girls who’ve been allegedly having affairs with the Phil Ivey of Golf, Tiger Woods. More are supposedly ready to sell their stories and souls for about $100,000 to tabloid mags come forward with their stories too. Interestingly, Woods apparently/allegedly met both girls in Las Vegas. Guess what they say about what happens in Vegas isn’t true after all!!! (nyuck nyuck nyuck)

:: Something tells us the old Neverwin forum would be all over the Tiger story. In related news, goodbye Neverwinpoker.com and hello Donkdown.com. [link]

:: This animation gets really, really funny about 1 minute in. [link]

:: Well, guess the transgressions are no longer “alleged.” [link]

:: Pauly‘s take on the isuldur1 account. Dude is like Keyser Soze…if Keyser Soze actually ever lost. [link]

:: Gross. [link]

:: Speaking of gross, maybe it’s time to stop making the ginger jokes. This is ridiculous. [link]

:: And finally, there are finally some pictures posted of Brittney Palmer‘s RawVegas.tv Girl of the Month shoot. [link]

And finally finally, our own Chops gives his thoughts on the industry in an interview over at Poker News here.

Phil Ivey The Tiger Woods of Poker?

by Wicked Chops Entity on 7.16.2009 in Poker News | 26 comments

Let us usher in the Phil Ivey is the Tiger Woods of poker stories...

Let us usher in the Phil Ivey is the Tiger Woods of poker stories...

Phil Ivey has made the 2009 WSOP November NineTM. And now, expect the mass media to immediately jump on the “Phil Ivey is the Tiger Woods of PokerTM” bandwagon.

In fact, if we were Seth Palansky and the WSOP crew (cough cough), we’d be pushing this story out there as the preeminent theme of the final table.

Next to Daniel Negreanu and Phil Hellmuth, Ivey is arguably the most marketable name in the game. If ESPN actually hypes the N9 players this year, Ivey will galvanize the attention and be the face of poker for the next four months. It’s a given. Lock it in.

And to make Ivey a story that relates to the masses, you will be inundated with the Ivey-Woods comparisons. They’ll say that Ivey has unparalleled talent in the game, like Woods. Ivey’s track record is unmatched, like Woods. And ratings will spike for the November Nine just like when Tiger Woods is in contention in the Masters on Sunday.

But is the Ivey-Woods comparison fair? Possibly. Ask any top pro and they will say that Ivey is the most feared and talented player in the game. Nobody has had the success of playing online, live cash, and live tournaments as Ivey. With seven WSOP bracelets (although none in no limit hold’em), Ivey is easily on pace to surpass Phil Hellmuth’s record total. And Ivey only needs a top 4 finish in the Main Event now to become the highest grossing tournament player of all-time.

The major difference between the two is that while Woods has actively cultivated himself as a brand, Ivey could care less. While he likely won’t turn down appearances on Leno like Peter Eastgate did last year, Ivey isn’t the type of guy who would greatly look forward to it either (like a Negreanu or Hellmuth).

Whether the comparisons are fair or not, the one thing that is certain is poker is much better off today that its most talented player has finally made the final table of its most prestigious event.

Poker Player Rocco Mediate Guns for U.S. Open Golf Title

by Wicked Chops Entity on 6.16.2008 in Poker News | no comments

Rocco Mediate at thee 2008 WSOP

When we first met poker player Rocco Mediate at the 2005 WSOP Main Event, we told him, "Son, you’re a good poker player. But if you really put your mind to it, you could be a world champion golfer. Work on your game for a few years and then give ‘em hell in 2008!"

Mediate, 45, apparently took our advice* and will play the Phil Ivey of golf, Tiger Woods, for the U.S. Open championship.

While a U.S. Open title isn’t as tough as Erick Lindgren’s golf prop bet last year or have the drama of Patrik Antonius and Daniel Negreanu’s battle last week, we here it’s still moderately prestigous.

The two will tee off at 9am PST. Get full chip counts here.

* And by "advice" we mean we said, "Hi, good to meet you…" which is closer to the real conversation we had.
