Nicky Hilton Will Be DoylesRoom's Poker Bounty TomorrowHotel Heiress Has Played Her Fair Share of Poker |
|
DoylesRoom continues to reinvent itself as one of the premiere places to play online as it hosts another bounty tournament tomorrow, Wednesday, at 9:30 p.m. ET. Hotel heiress Nicky Hilton will star as the tournament’s celebrity bounty.
Ever since DoylesRoom reopened to American players in late January, the site has strived to create tournaments that would appeal to the casual player. Its weekly bounty tournament, featuring big-name poker players and Hollywood celebrities, is priced at an affordable $27.50 — but first-time players in the tournament receive a full refund no matter how well they do.
This week, DoylesRoom welcomes back the 25-year-old fashion designer and model as its celebrity bounty.
Hilton, who leads a much quieter life than her sister Paris, learned the game five years ago and immediately took to it. She has played and organized charity tournaments at Bellagio and Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, but she said she has played a decent amount online, as well.
“I’ve known Doyle Brunson for a few years,” Hilton told CardPlayer.com. “We met a while back in Vegas, and he introduced me to his site.”
If a player knocks out Hilton or any other bounty player, he’ll be awarded with a $500 bounty prize. If a player knocks out two of the key bounties, he’ll win $5,000. If someone knocks out three key bounties, he’ll take home $25,000. Brunson, Mike Caro, Hoyt Corkins, and Todd Brunson often compete as bounties in the tournament.
In the past, Sopranos actress Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Entourage star Kevin Connolly, and Baywatch legend Pamela Anderson have competed as celebrity bounties at DoylesRoom.
Hilton warns players not to take her lightly.
“Don’t underestimate me,” she said.
