IronDuke.com Commits 'Jennicide' as First Sponsored ProMerge Gaming Network's IronDuke.com Announces Signing of Jennifer Leigh |
|
Jennifer Leigh will become the first professional poker player to join IronDuke.com as of Aug. 1.
Leigh, otherwise known as “Jennicide,” can often be found at both low- and high-stakes no-limit hold'em tables, as well as tournaments on the site. Her signing will spark regular Jennicide bounty tournaments which will have buy-ins of $15 + $1.50 with $150 added and a $60 bounty.
Leigh said that she is proud and excited to be part of the fast growing IronDukePoker, and her main focus away from the cash tables will be to spend many hours interacting with IronDuke players, assisting them with any poker-related questions, and helping amateurs to become better poker players.
The young pro’s career started in 2005 when she was invited to play in a series of televised tournaments called Poker Royale, Battle of the Ages. She played in four out of six of these tournaments and won three of them, beating poker legends like Dan Harrington and “Miami” John Cernuto in heads-up play at just 21 years of age.
Since then, Leigh’s career has gone from strength to strength. She has been featured in various magazines, including Card Player, and was most recently the main feature and front cover of Playboy, which she took part in to promote awareness of the game.
CEO of IronDuke.com said the introduction of Leigh to IronDukePoker and the Merge Gaming network is the first in many new and exciting things happening within the company.
