Experience mixed with talent and a certain feminine charm will be taking the 2007 World Series of Poker by storm. A team of women poker professionals, celebrities, and executives have come together in an effort to raise money for the American Heart Association's "Go Red for Women Campaign" and the Nevada Cancer Institute by forming the Queen of Hearts Team.

The team includes pros Vanessa Rousso, Jennifer Leigh, Clonie Gowen, Isabelle Mercier, Mary Jones, and Susie Isaacs, as well as actress Jennifer Tilly, poker writer Lisa Wheeler, real estate broker Elizabeth Sheperd, attorney and Florida magistrate Mary Magazine, president of watchmaker Corum USA Stacie Orloff, and amateur champions Anne Spinetti and Mylene Leitner. The team will be co-captained by actress Mimi Rogers and Queen of Hearts founder Lisa Tenner.

All team members will play in the WSOP ladies no-limit hold'em event scheduled for June 10-11 at the Rio in Las Vegas. Players will donate money from any winnings in the ladies event at their discretion.
