Tiffany Michelle to Host Livestreamed Celebrity Cash Game

Californian actress Tiffany Michele hit the poker jackpot again this week, the regular of Maxim magazine’s Top 20 Hottest Celebrity Poker Players fronting the premiere of ‘Gardens Poker Nights’, a celebrity cash game poker show which will run for 13 episode and be livestreamed on Twitch.

Michelle shot to fame in the poker world when she was the ‘Last Woman Standing’ in the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event, her 17th spot finish worth a cool $334,534 and launching her into the poker limelight, becoming a sponsored pro for Ultimate Bet – the other side of the poker table from her previous as a columnist and reporter for the likes of Bluff Magazine and PokerNews.

Tiffany was joined for the opening salvo of the new show by Prison Break’s Amaury Nolasco,  The Brady Bunch Movie’s Jennifer Cox and Emmy award-winning producer David Zuker, while future episodes of the cash game will feature the likes of former “In Living Color” star David Alan Grier as well as poker pro Maria Ho.

Maria Ho was Michelle’s partner on the CBS reality TV show ‘The Amazing Race’ in 2009, the close friends known as the ‘Poker Girls’, although they fell just short of the finishing line.

The 33-year old Los Angeles star has appeared in numerous TV soap operas, including Days of our Lives and as the ‘hated’ Scarlett Kane in the award-winning DeVanity, although she also has credits as a producer, director and writer on her resume – something she plans to use in ‘Gardens Poker Nights’.

As Director of Programming and Producer for the latest in a long string of televised and livestreamed poker shows recently, Michelle explained:

“Over the next 13 weeks I have an array of all-original programming planned, featuring celebrities, poker pros, Ladies Nights, and casino high stakes games.”

The Twitch TV livestream will run for two hours on Wednesday and Thursday nights, with a four hour Friday night special.
