She’s not terrible for a ditzy actress, but still pretty awful for much time she’s put in. A lot of high stakes games run simply because she’s playing

I haven’t watched the WSOP in a few years, but I just did a quick Google and she’s 67 years old and will be 68 in September, her being a bit long in the tooth is to be expected.

Apparently she’s still with Phil Laak and has a WSOP bracelet.

Sorry, but she is a horrible player. They love her in the game.

She looks pretty damn good for 67. I wouldn’t kick her out of bed for sure.

I hate these absurdly late registration deadlines. Not as bad in the main event because it is a freeze out.

I agree there should be no late registration in a tournament like this

With over $1,000,000 in poker earnings as of 2019. Not too shabby for a "Horrible Player".

That doesn’t mean she is a good player or a bad player. But, if you like stats, check out her cash game stats.

I watched a lot of Day 1c on youtube.

I thought I heard one of the announcers say Cressend who is one of the players on the TV tables is from Baton Rouge. He was playing with 40k to 50k chips most of the day.

You can have a million dollars in live tournament earnings and be five million dollars in the hole. It is a completely meaningless stat.

There’s a dude I’ve played with named Jeremy Becker who has over $5 million in career earnings. He routinely buys in six or seven times a tournament and tries to build a big stack. He can cash in a tournament and lose a lot of money.

I find it to be a fairly stress free side hustle. I could never do it for a full time income though.
