I had been hearing murmurs … and now we get the word from @LaceyJones herself that the hostess of tomorrow night\’s WSOP launch party is back with her former backers at Absolute Poker.
Though I haven\’t had a chance to ask her about it yet, it\’s a curious move … considering she was a disgruntled former face-person for AP with plenty of reasons to believe they may have been a shady operation even before the cheating scandal emerged. (It was the bogus charity popcorn sale at the 2006 WSOP, I think, that really chapped her hide.)
While I suppose it\’s theoretically possible that Lacey is such a degenerate poker addict that returning to her former abusers was the only way to get her tournament fix, might it more so suggest that one of the purest poker hotties has re-evaluated the company and concluded that the new-and-improved operations at Absolute are clean and dandy?
