Tiffany Michelle usually turns heads no matter where she goes but right now she has all eyes on her at the Rio in Las Vegas. You see this hot model/actress turned Poker Player is currently sitting in 5th Place with just 79 Players remaining in this years World Series of Poker Main Event.There were 6,844 people enter this years event the second highest total of the Main Event. The prize they are chasing is over 9 million dollars for 1st Place. Tiffany Michelle is currently sitting in 5th place with 3.4 million in Chips and making a bid to make the Final Table.Tiffany started as an actress and honed her poker skills playing in the Big Hollywood Games that seem to be all the rage as celebrities are catching the poker bug. In 2005 Tiffany decided to give professional poker a try. She won her very first Tournament when she came to Las Vegas in September of 2005 as she took down Harrah's Daily No-Limit Tournament. In 2006 Tiffany joined Bluff Radio's national WSOP broadcast coverage on Sirius Satellite Radio. She now covers tournaments for pokernews.com when she isn't playing or has an acting job. If she makes the Final Table she could be looking at a major windfall both in Poker and her acting career as with the final table being held to November "The November 9" as ESPN is referring to them will be household names. Tiffany would be in line for major endorsement deals as who wouldn't want to sponsor a smoking hot chick at the final table. Her acting career would take off as well as the publicity from the November 9 would get her auditions she never would have got before.Personally I'm rooting for her as I would love to see a women make the Final Table especially one that's easy on the eyes!!
Good looking girl, and she's sporting a small pair...of boobies :P
She's got more pics on her own webpage
Just got back from the Rio there are just 34 players left in the field and Tiffany continues her run as she is currently tied for 5th with 7.4 million in chips. The leader Brandon Cantu has 10.2 million.
Great stuff Marco. Is Jeff Madsen still around? I was just reading a good article about him and Cantu, who are next-door neighbors.
Jeff Madsen busted out in 112th place. Biggest name still remaining is Mike 'The Mouth Matusow with 2.7 Million
We could be seeing history in the making as when play ended on Sunday Night just 27 Players remained and Tiffany is in 3rd Place with 9.7 million in Chips. The 27 Players will return at noon Vegas Time and play down to the Final 9.
Tiffany definitely has that "POKER FACE"! Keep those updates coming.
The WSOP Main Event is down to 18 Players remaining. Tiffany took a 4 million chip hit today and is currently 13th with 5.2 Million in chips.

I also would love for Tiffany to win it all.
Just got back from the Rio it was a sick hand that ended Tiffany's run. Dennis Phillips raised to 500,000 from Under the Gun. Peter Eastlake flat called and Tiffany Michelle called from the Big Blind. The Flop was A 10 9 Rainbow. Tiffany checked the flop, and Phillips bet 1million, Eastlake flat called once again. Tiffany thought about it for about a minute and announced ALL IN for her remaining 3.8 million in chips. Phillips folded and Eastlake called. Tiffany turned over AJ for top pair with a Jack kicker. Eastlake turned over Pocket Aces and Tiffany was drawing dead when a 5 fell on the turn. Eastlake played his Aces well disguising the strength of his hand by flat calling the entire way. Tiffany left the Amazon Room at the Rio to a standing ovation. I thought I might of been watching history unfold tonight as I strongly believe that had Tiffany made the final table that this could have been the second biggest thing for Poker since Chris Moneymaker Won the Main Event in 2003. Female poker players would have been coming from everywhere to give poker a try.
Hat's off to Tiffany Michelle who finished 17th and earned herself $334,534.
