A star is born on Celebrity Poker Showdown

Finally, a non-celeb takes down the celebs on Celebrity Poker Showdown.
Ida Siconolfi, who won the Bravo online tournament to get a seat in last night's show, played a fantastic game to beat Fred Savage, Jennifer Tilly, Doug E. Doug, and Brett Butler, and will now go on to the championship match later this season.
When I heard that Bravo was going to pick a regular viewer to get a seat on Celebrity Poker Showdown, I thought it would be some online gaming geek or some really obnoxious person who would try to outdo the celebs when it came to over the top humor. Not so. Ida proved to be classy, quiet, and one of the top players that has ever been on the show.
I might even have to root for her in the championship game. |
