Online Poker Room Snags Elizabeth
If anyone had any questions left as to whether or not actress Shannon Elizabeth was considered a poker pro, her recent sponsorship by online poker room Mansion Poker puts those questions to rest. During the 2008 Aussie Millions, at which Elizabeth was offered a free ride if she promoted the tournament but chose to pay her own way, she got the offer of being on the Mansion Poker team. The sponsorship likely included a free seat at the event, which sheds some light as to why she turned down the offer from the tourney managers in the first place.
