Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

I was just wondering whether any of you believe it? I was watching the first 06' WSOP Circuit event and the 'Perfect Poker Player' has Evelyn Ng's looks. Is she just famous because she is beautiful or is it because she is beautiful AND skilled? Besides that Ladies only event, has she ever done anything impressive?

Enlighten me.

shes cashed in the last 3 world series (one this year, three last year and one in 2004), and shes made it deep in 3 WPT events the past two years. obviously she's not up to par with the top pros but i think her resume is definitely nothing to be scoffed at. she seems like a good player.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

There's a fatal flaw in your analogy. Anna Kournikova is hot.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

The real question is, how much she has spent in buyins all together? For every cash she may have like 4 - 6 non cashes.

Ng has made a little over 100K in tournaments in each of the past two years. Playing on the full tournament circuit costs at least twice that. So if she's playing a full slate, she's losing a lot of money, although I'm sure it is made up for in sponsorships.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

lol, I agree. From what I hear Evelyn is mainly a mid/high limit cash game player (I saw her play 100-200 last year at the Bellagio). She is quite new to No-Limit tournaments so obviously, its not her best game. But I agree, if she looked like Kathy Liebert, we wouldn't know who she is.

PS. This same argument can be used with Jean Gluck.

i doubt shes playing the full circuit every year, she doesn't seem like the type (although im not sure). i'm sure shes probably not making big money or anything, but i don't think shes way in the red for tournaments. and isn't she a bodog team member? i'm sure they help her out some.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

Yes, she's horrible, this has covered ad nauseum.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

yes, she's on bodog.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

most of u have it right.
she's gotta be significantly in the red for tournaments, but her entrys are paid by whoever sponsors her and those sponsors are most likely getting their money's worth.
she'll always be in pictures, regardless of how she plays, and if your logo is flashing across her t i t s in big letters, you've got a good investment

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

She's constantly in the Cardplayer updates at the start of a tournament.

She's rarely in the Cardplayer updates at the end of a tournament.

I'm pretty sure she's a losing player in tournaments, especially if you factor in travel costs. If you factor in sponsorships, she's probably ahead.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

I played with her in the $5000 plhe event and she did everything in her power to bust asap.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

She has yet to prove her self worthy of any attention. If she was a man no one would know who her name. A young semi-attractive woman can be a poker "star" simply by being a decent player. That is what I believe her to be.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

you guys actually find her attractive?? i just dont see it

David Williams is not her boyfriend. I've seen David Williams' girlfriend come to Caesars and sit with him when he plays quite a few times.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

All I want to know is how did a Negreanu and a Schoenfeld weasel their way into her pants. Now that would be potentially valuable information! [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

Negreanu digs Asians.

Canadian-born women digs Caucasians.

Are you serious? I'll post the pics right now!

Evelyn is cute... but my wife is MUCH hotter! Not even close.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

So is this deal good enough for anyone to take a shot??
I post a pic and if 10% of people think my gf is hotter than Ms Ng I get 1000? I would take those odds even if she had downs. Let me know so we can do this, lets get the polls ready, I am sure the 1000 will help my gf's bankroll and she will be very happy. By the way just because we are all poker-nerds doesnt mean we are completely useless with the fairer sex.

On this forum, having a wife with Down's would be +EV for your bet. Remember you would be polling the same community who thought Fred Chamanara was one of the best players at the table of HSP.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

I don't even think it matters either way. People would vote for your girlfriend to just to see the guy pay up.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

Yes, she lives with David Williams, she has said so publicly.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

she seems like a nice girl...if all of you were in her shoes you'd be effing riding the wave and raping the poker boom.

Re: Evelyn Ng: The Anna Kournikova of Poker?
 

I think she finished 3rd in the Poker STars Sunday 200 tourney once. Now you want to talk about someone who gets a lot of publicity because of their looks and not their results, that person is Clowie Gowen. I've never seen or read of any big events she's won.

Clonie won a huge WPT event featuring a field of 5 other women.

Which she had to suckout to win.
