If you ask me, she's a refreshing change from the female poker players who only well-known b/c they are pretty and seem more interested in increasing their celebrity than working on their game.

Vanessa is known almost entirely for being pretty, and not for her (few) tournament scores.

On the contrary, she's shown a fair amount of potential in poker tournaments, and she seems like a totally capable player. Whether you think she's hot or not, she definitely has a certain sass that sets her apart, and I won't be surprised if she enjoys a succesful poker career in addition to her self-promotability.

Potential does not equal success. How many male players are sponsored on pokerstars with so little in the way of accomplishments?

LOL, good post. Here is hoping that Isabelle Mercier's pokerstars deal has no Make-up clause.

I think if the vast majority of 2+2'ers were able to play in every 10K buy-in that the results would be equal if not better.

My post wasn't anti Vanessa Rousso, It was clear she was very nervous. Just stop pushing Harrington's book, and name droping and Inventing words.

Just be yourself.

BTW Clonnie Gowen needs to retire.

as someone who talks 'fast' (not as fast as in the old days. had to slow down for other folks, nahmean?) i had to check out the interview to see if she really talked that fast. if you guys think she's on speed/crack, wow, you'd really think im on something.

At the most recent WPT event at the The Bike, she was 'together' with Chad.

Are you kidding?? He beat Exclusive heads up for the TLB.

Saved PS 2 large.

Also Will doesnt play the circuit like all the girls actually do.

She was at my table for most of the first day of this year's main event. Very pleasant, articulate, didn't trash talk, and seemed to play well.
