Liz Lieu Signs with Online Poker Room
September 13, 2007 - Domenica DiPiero
Liz Lieu, aka the Poker Diva, is one hot commodity these days. Not only has the beautiful lady been tearing up the tournament circuit with over $600,000 in earnings. She's gone deep in nearly every major tournament series including the WSOP, WPT and EPT. As good as she is in tourneys, Lieu is even a bigger threat in high stakes cash games. She's a stylish shark in stilettos.
To top things off, Lieu is charitable. When she won nearly $150,000 during the LA Poker Classic earlier this year (she won the $1,000 NLHE event), she donated 20% off the top to charity. Basically, Lieu is the total package.
It's not surprising that she signed on to sponsor an online poker room. We figured it was just a matter of time before someone snapped her up. Liz, along with Fabrice Soulier, has recently agreed to endorse Chilipoker.com. She even made the decision to relocate to London, from Vegas, to be closer to the growing online site's headquarters.
Liz herself admits that she was "was very careful to find a site that I could work with as a true partner and one that had the same aspirations as myself." She truly wants "become an imporant 'face' of the site." Of course, Liz doesn't fail to mention that Chilipoker is also "very supportive of my charity work". In fact, a portion of her winnings will go directly to her charities.
Currently in London for the WSOPE, Liz is quickly becoming an integral part of the Chilipoker School, where she reveals some of her "best kept tips and winning secrets."
Before you go, watch the lovely Liz get a little silly and talk some serious strategy at the 2007 WSOP:
