WPT Ladies Night IV lineup guesses
My educated guesses for the lineup for WPT Ladies Night IV:
1. Jennifer Tilly (Winner of WPT Ladies Night III) 2. Stacy Matuson (5th place at Aruba) 3. Vanessa Rousso (7th place at WPT Championship) 4. Erica Schoenberg (16th place at WPT Championship) 5. The WSOP Ladies event winner, if she is photogenic and is not either Chinese or Vietnamese 6. The winner of $125 buy-in event at the Bike on August 16 J.J. Liu, who finished 4th at the Bellagio 5 Diamonds during WPT Season IV, has NOT been contacted by the WPT regarding Ladies Night IV as of June 29. Both Liu, who is Taiwanese (Taiwan Chinese), and her fiance Dan Alspach, are NOT happy that Liu is apparently being excluded from WPT Ladies Night IV for "business reasons". Liu and Alspach both understand that Liu's apparent exclusion may have to do with real money online poker being explicitly outlawed in China.

[/ QUOTE ] they don't really believe that's the reason JJ isn't being invited, do they? talk about rose-colored glasses ... we all know she's not being invited because she isn't as young/attractive/famous as the rest of the probable invitees. btw, i think you're dead-on with the line-up ...

Re: WPT Ladies Night IV lineup guesses
Is Jenn Harman not on the tour or something? Why isn't she invited?

[/ QUOTE ] Neither Liz Lieu nor Shirley "Poker Babe" Rosario have won a WSOP bracelet or placed deep into the money at any WPT event within the past 15 months. Remember that WPTE is trying to build an vertically-intergrated "alternative" poker universe, with its own "World Champion" that no one else in the poker world recognizes, its own online poker room, its own poker magazine, and its own poker news website. Based strictly on results alone, J.J. Liu would have gotten the Ladies Night IV slot instead of Erica Schoenberg. However, Erica Schoenberg's slot in WPT Ladies Night IV is pretty much guaranteed, while J.J. Liu will probably end up being the odd woman out, because the wptonline.com online poker room business is not allowed to legally operate in China, Hong Kong, or Macau (and possibly Taiwan as well).
