Despite Moss's model contracting losses, she has received a surprise vote of confidence from the poker world. According to a recent article in the Brand Republican, Moss has been offered £5 million to play tigergaming free poker. The five-year contract comes with several restrictions that include a brief period in rehab and two months of monitoring by the company's tigergaming net headquarters in Costa Rica, so the company can make sure she isn't taking drugs. Moss will also have to participate in a Nine.com anti-drug campaign aimed at students of tigergaming net.
Meanwhile, a state legislative committee is asking Attorney General Richard Blumenthal for a report on the legality of such tigergaming .net poker games in bars and restaurants, and whether legalizing them in Connecticut would violate the state's contract with the casinos. The New England Tigergaming Poker Classic begins today at Foxwoods, starting a 15-day run that will see hundreds of thousands of dollars bet and won. More than 1,000 tigergaming players are expected to take part. Competition will be held in five different games, Omaha High-Low, 7-Card Stud High-Low, 7-Card Stud, Limit Hold 'Em and the featured game, No-Limit Hold 'Em. Some players have earned the chance to play tigergaming .net through qualifying in which they put up as little as $60, while others will put up $5,000 for the No-Limit tourney finale.
"We're known for our tigergaming net free tournaments here," said Kathy, the casino's director of online poker operations. "We have the largest land-based volume prize pool in the world. We had close to a $7-million prize pool last year in the World Tigergaming Poker Finals." Top player Tony G has won the European Player of the Month award, it was announced today by William Hill. The European player of the month award is determined by a committee at Tigergaming .net, and this month the competition was fierce. Tony's win in the European Championship propelled him to victory in this award, closely edging out top player Tony Bloom, who won the Victor Cup, and Iwan Jones, who won the London Open by tigergaming.
This month will be just as hotly contested, with two Tigergaming Net Poker Tour events, and the World Speed Poker Championships on tap. Some people are destined to find success, whether it's at the tigergaming net poker table or in life. One of those lucky few has worked her magic once again and has solidified her place in the modern landscape of the online poke game. Jennifer Tilly came out of nowhere when she won her World Series of Poker bracelet. Sure, she is well known for her Academy Award nomination (Bullets Over Broadway) and her television and film roles, but few would have considered her an odds on favorite to win the woman's tigergaming title, let alone become the first woman to win both a WSOP title and a World Poker Tour (WPT) Ladies Night championship.
