BetUS Girl Dawn Olivieri’s Career Takes Off

2009-10-07T05:21:00.000-07:00

NEW YORK, NY - The biggest thing happening on Monday night no doubt is Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings taking on Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers on Monday Night Football, but if those fan boys who aren’t interested in seeing the grizzled Favre try to take down his past employer, then they should turn their eyes to the more lovely image of BetUS Girl Dawn Olivieri on the NBC show Heroes.

When the Heroes’ writers and producers needed an individual to portray Lydia, a tattooed clairvoyant with the ability to connect with people and know their whereabouts, they turned to Olivieri who was more than happy to take up the role. For Olivieri, it might be her most impressive work to date, as Lydia is an extremely complex character.

See Dawn's profile at BetUS.com

MORE ABOUT DAWN:

Olivieri is probably best known for bits part on television shows like Cold Case, Knight Rider and How I Met Your Mother and for holding metal case #15 on Deal or No Deal in 2005. Her role on Heroes as Lydia is her first true recurring role, and almost assuredly signals that the BetUS Girl has become more than just a calendar pin-up model or bit role actress.

Lydia is an outcast and as Olivieri recently said in an interview with www.girl2watch.com, “I think being ostracized a lot, being the outcast and odd kid, you learn to be by yourself and cultivate yourself.”

The tattooed clairvoyant on Heroes is the perfect role in which Olivieri can cultivate herself and from Lydia there’s no doubt that her career will only keep going up from here on out.

Olivieri has three film projects in the works in 2009. In Drop Dead Gorgeous, a black comedy about using a dead model in a documentary about a famous fashion designer, Olivieri plays Brooke.

In the television action movie Xtra Credit she has a starring role as Lexy, and in the horror film Dozers, Olivieri picks up another starring role as Ashley.

Dozers could really jump start Olivier’s career on the big screen as the high-concept Dozers, which revolves around a Brave New Worldish plot involving a morality bomb releasing behavioral inhibitors and a stress-relieving patch called Solace, could be a huge hit.

Olivieri plays an Internet reporter struggling for fame. Ashley and Lydia are the type of rolls that Olivieri has been working for.

From here on out, it’s up, up and away for http://www.betus.com/miss-betus/americas-sweethearts/2009-06/dawn-olivieri/

POORYA NAZARI WINS $3 MILLION AT POKERSTARS CARIBBEAN ADVENTURE

2009-01-13T07:40:00.000-08:00

Atlantis, Paradise Island, Bahamas- January 11, 2009 - Poorya Naziri from Toronto, Canada, turned $700 into $3 million today when he won the sixth PokerStars Caribbean Adventure.

The 22-year-old biochemistry graduate won his seat on PokerStars in a $33 triple turbo rebuy tournament, investing only $700 to win his trip to the Caribbean and a seat in the PCA ‘Festival of Poker’ main event. He was one of 1,347 entrants in the $10k no limit hold 'em event - a number that smashed all records for a poker tournament held outside the United States and created a total prize pool of more than $12.5 million.

Poorya, who graduated last month, admitted he was stunned by the win – one of the biggest sporting prizes in the world. He said: “It was only today that I started thinking about winning. At one point yesterday I was down to virtually nothing but I got off to a good start today and at that point I thought I might have a shot.” Poorya, who has never been to Europe, has also a won a seat in the EPT Grand Final which takes place in Monte Carlo, April 28 - May 3.

To see more of the PCA tournament please click here

The record field at this year’s PCA included 1,059 PokerStars players, of whom 746, including Poorya, had won their seats online with PokerStars.

Team PokerStars Pro Alexandre Gomes made the final table but was knocked out in fourth place, earning $750,000. Among the stars in the tournament were German tennis legend and PokerStars ambassador Boris Becker as well as 26 Team PokerStars Pros. The roll call of top players included last year’s PCA champion Bertrand “ElkY” Grospellier, former world champions Joe Hachem, Greg Raymer and Chris Moneymaker, the multiple bracelet winner Daniel Negreanu and sponsored PokerStars player Peter Eastgate, who became the youngest ever WSOP world champion when he won $9 million in November. Other stars who took part included Phil Ivey, Gus Hansen, Chris Ferguson, Antonio Esfandiari and Eli Elezra.

The Team PokerStars Pros Vicky Coren, Barry Greenstein, Marcin Horecki and Tom McEvoy also cashed in the main event, alongside sponsored players Kathy Liebert - 12th for $120,000 - and PokerStars Six players Ylon Schwartz and Eastgate.

Also sponsored into the event were PokerStars Six players Ivan Demidov, Darus Suharto and Dennis Philips as well as the Norwegian star Johnny Lodden, the American baseball legend Orel Hershiser and the Brazilian Indy stock car racer Gualter Salles.

Team PokerStars Pros had a great week during the PCA ‘Festival of Poker’ with Grospellier, last year’s PCA champion, taking home $433,000 for winning the $25,000 PCA High Roller event and Hevad Khan winning the $2,000 side event for $200,000. Eastgate followed up his cash in the main event by winning the $5,000 event for $343,000.

Other events this week included the Battleship tournament, won by Bahbak "bigredAK" Oboodifor a $44,800 first prize, and the finals of the World Cup of Poker, won by Germany.

John Duthie, the Executive Producer of the PokerStars.com European Poker Tour, said: “The PCA is the first major poker event on the hectic 2009 poker calendar and the recent worldwide financial crisis did nothing to deter more than 1,300 people entering the $10,000 buy-in main event that smashed all records for a poker tournament outside of the States.”

2008 World Championship of Online Poker

2008-08-27T05:31:00.000-07:00

The PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) returns September 2008, with a guaranteed prize pool of $30,000,000, that’s double the total guarantee of last year, making it the biggest online poker tournament series in the world!

There are 33 different events in total, covering a wide range of poker games, including Hold’em, Omaha, Stud, Razz, HORSE, 2-7 Draw and more. Each event has a huge guarantee prize pool, with many reaching more than $2,000,000!

The series culminates with the $10,000,000 guaranteed Main Event, September 21. Last year’s Main Event was won by ‘Ka$ino’, who took away prize money of $1,378,330! With cash prizes this big and a bracelet for the winner of each event, the WCOOP is THE series to be a part of. Don’t miss out on taking your seat!

You can buy in directly to any WCOOP event, or win your seat via one of the many PokerStars satellites running now. To register, open the PokerStars lobby, click ‘Events’ and ‘WCOOP’.

The 2008 WCOOP runs from September 5-22. See below for the full schedule of events.

Watch the video below to see why members of Team PokerStars Pro think that the WCOOP is the greatest online tournament series around!

History of the WCOOP Main Event

Since the WCOOP started in 2002, the Main Event prize pool has grown at an incredible rate. Swedish player ‘MultiMarine’ won $65,450 for his victory in that year. But by 2003, first place prize money had risen to $222,750, and was won by ‘DeOhGee’. ‘Ragde’ won $424,945 in 2004, while ‘Panella86’ picked up $577,342 the following year. In 2006, pro player J.C. Tran walked away with $600,000, before ‘Ka$ino’ won a massive $1,378,330 in 2007. See our 2007 WCOOP stats page for more information on last year’s winners.

*2-day event

Qualify for the 2008 World Championship of Online Poker with PokerStars Steps Sit & Go satellites. WCOOP Steps start with buy-ins as low as $7.50 or 500 Frequent Player Points credits. Players finishing in the top two places in a Step tournament win a ticket to the next one up.

If you make it to Step 6, you’ll get to battle it out for one of three seats in the $10,000,000 guaranteed WCOOP Main Event. If you don’t make it that far, it’s still possible to start again at the same level or the one below. You also have the option of playing for a seat in other WCOOP events at Step 4, including the $3,000,000 guaranteed NL Hold’em event. Don’t forget that you can even buy in directly to any of the Steps levels.

We’ll also be running cash and FPP satellites from July 6 for all 2008 WCOOP events.

WCOOP Steps satellites are available now. To register, open the PokerStars lobby, click ‘Events’ and ‘WCOOP’. Alternatively, use the Event Filter to find exactly what you are looking for. In ‘Events’ and ‘WCOOP’, click the Event Filter and enter the details you want to find. For example, if you want to win a seat in the $1,050 PL Omaha $500,000 guarantee (Event 30), type ‘PL Omaha’ into the filter and the lobby window will instantly show you all available PL Omaha satellites.

Diamonds Are Forever

When you play real money poker here at Spin32Poker, you accumulate Comp Points. These Comp Points have a variety of uses including freeroll entry and exclusive bonuses. Come July, we are adding even more value to these comp points to help you earn free cash as you play!

Throughout July, your player admin section will track the comp points that you earn and prizes you have unlocked via the 'Player Admin'. There will be Comp Point increments, starting at the two of Diamonds and going through to the Ace of Diamonds. Each card will represent a set task, and a corresponding cash payout. Every time you reach the next increment, the matching card will light up and you're an INSTANT winner. The more points you earn, the more cash you will win!

You can win more than $2,500 in cash and prizes, simply by reaching all of the comp points goals and unlocking the all the cards. The higher the card you unlock, the bigger the payout you receive. The best part is you can win up to 13 different prizes!

Comp Points are automatically earned as you play real money games, so you can simply continue to play your favourite ring games or tournaments and work towards free cash at the same time! Keep an eye out for the Diamonds display in your player admin and stay up to date with all your free cash!
