WPT Ladies Night IV logo sponsors

[olivert]

These are the logo sponsors I have for each of the players of WPT Ladies Night IV as of close of business on August 25:

Jennifer Tilly - PKR.NET

J.J. Liu - ?

Vanessa Rousso - PokerStars.NET

Anahit Galajian - ?

Erica Schoenberg - MansionPoker.NET

Kelli Griggs - UltimateBet.NET

--

That leaves FullTiltPoker.NET and AbsolutePoker.NET/APLady.NET among the high-profile sites currently without representation at WPT Ladies Night IV.

(PartyPoker.NET usually doesn't like to sponsor players besides its own consultants and/or employees, i.e. Mike Sexton and Mike O'Malley.)

I understand that J.J. Liu will be sponsored by FullTiltPoker.NET for WPT Ladies Night IV.

What, No Victoria Secret sponsorships.... I'm crushed....

This should be the maditory uniform of ladies night....

BTW on the money presentation will there be Chipendales w. Banana Hammocks on....

[MrDannimal]

Seriously, who cares?

I am saving the "numbers" of the Griggs and Liu logo deals for an upcoming article. I am pitching that article right now to a major poker-specific magazine.

Liu has about a 2 to 1 chip lead against Griggs as heads-up play begins.

Which player will use Ladies Night IV as the springboard for opportunities in the entertainment industry?

The veteran poker pro from Taiwan who aspires to be the one of the ambassadors of poker in Chinese-speaking markets in Asia?

Or the perky Sacramento mom who calls herself "Annie Duke's biggest fan"?

WPT Ladies Night IV has a winner.

Say "nihao" to the "Linda Johnson" of China, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Macau:

Final follow-up on this: Anahit Galajian was also sponsored by FullTiltPoker.NET according to witnesses.

That meant AbsolutePoker.NET/APLady.NET was shut out.

Hmmm. One has to assume that AP weren't particularly bothered.

Yes, an APLady sponsored player on a female oriented show makes sense but AP probably didn't see it that way.
