Paris Hilton

Just read in a little newsbite that Paris Hilton is now "addicted" to poker. You might know who Paris Hilton is... she's currently most famous for her role as Paige Edwards in the under-appreciated movie House of Wax. She'll probably be most remembered, though, for producing and starring in the soon-to-be-released blockbuster National Lampoon's Pledge This! (I plan on betting heavy on the over when it comes out).

She says :

"I'm obsessed with poker. It's my favourite game now. We love it. We play at tournaments in Vegas. I'm really lucky in Vegas - I always win!"

I actually met Paris Hilton one time at The Standard in Santa Monica. Bobby was there too. This was a few weeks before her show came out, so I didn't know she was going to become the hottest reality tv star in the history of the genre. If I'd known that, I might have worked up the nerve to actually introduce myself instead of just chilling out in silence next to my exgf. She had a copy of the pilot episode of The Simple Life with her and we got the sneak peek because of some common friends.

Now that Paris plays poker, the game is officially hot.

So just to throw it out there. Paris. If you are reading this and want some lessons, shoot me a line. I'll teach you what I know about poker if you teach me what you know about being lucky.
