With that said, I'm not nearly as irritated by the Strip Poker headline as the existence of the Women in Poker Hall of Fame in itself. The Poker Hall of Fame isn't good enough? Separate but equal sounded like a good idea here? Oy ve - don't get me started!

(I once saw pictures of her in compromising positions with a zoo animal.) But still, for her sake, I hope she doesn't have to go to the pole to replenish her bankroll. For some reason, I think that's kinda what they are honoring with these players ... that they didn't need to booty-shake their way to a bunch of final tables.

She looks a little like my grandma. You know, I’m sure Linda is a thoroughly nice person, but I don’t think I’d want to think about her stripped too much more. She looks a little like my grandma.
