Poker Players Your Players Look Up To

Vanessa Rousso

Vanessa Rousso
The Lady Maverick is a French/American poker sensation who seems to have been crafted especially for promoting poker. Rousso got into poker while on break from law school. She’d long been into games, but found the Rubik’s Cube and chess to be a little too, “static,” for her tastes.

Now, with over $3 million in winnings on the pro poker circuit, she’s a bona fide superstar.

While Rousso isn’t a household name, yet, she has appeared in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue and has a bit of mainstream appeal that could be appealing outside of poker circles.
