It was pretty much confirmed by everyone but Maria Ho and Tiffany Michelle, but now the CBS website lists the contestants for the upcoming broadcast of the Amazing Race, and they\’re on it. The Associated Press provided a quote from Ho:
\”It\’s obviously different from competition at the poker table,\” said Ho, who came in 11th place at this year\’s World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. \”It\’s outdoorsy. This is physical and mental, but we will definitely be applying whatever skills we have as gamers to this competition and push ourselves in different ways that we\’re not used to doing.\”
Their combined bio can be found on the CBS website and describes them as well-traveled, extremely competitive, strong-minded, and savvy. (Funny – but not really – that they\’re described by most poker media as simply \”hot.\”) Despite my usual ban on reality television, I\’ll set the DVR to see how far the ladies make it. The premiere is Sunday, September 27.
