Here’s word directly from Jennifer Leigh herself, about her choice (my emph) to share her naked tatas natural beauty with the non-poker world …

She’ll be in the May issue, according to her interview for (mostly) non-poker women — SHEKNOWS: Confessions of a Poker Princess — where she not only gives the girl-next-door details about her pictorial for (mostly) non-poker men, but also reveals her crossover potential in World of Warcraft, which I suspect will make a lot of more-than-poker gamer-types out there theoretically really happy.

The rumor has persisted for more than a year, and it seems to be true.

Jennifer “Jennicide” Leigh will appear in the May 2008 issue of Playboy Magazine. It is unclear if she will be on the cover as Wicked Chops suggests, or simply featured in a 6-page editorial spread as Bluff Magazine reports.

Whether or not she’s still a poker player can be debated, and what this nude gig will do for her career life remains to be seen. But what is for sure is that every man in poker will know what her hole cards are.

(For those unfamiliar with Playboy Magazine, it’s a men’s publication that demonstrates true journalistic integrity and features some of the world’s most prominent and influential people.)
