| Mariah Carey wins big pot | 26th September, 2005 |
 When thinking of poker celebrities you often think of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck but what if we tell you that Mariah Carey scored a big pot in Vegas at producer J. Dupri's 33rd birthday party? Her opponents soared a great $27,000 loss after only three rounds.
The source indictated that the pop diva's win was based on pure luck and did not state whether she went on playing a few more rounds after that. After all, we might add that Mariah has an exclusive apartment in a top building in New York; two full floors. Singing apparently pays off quite well.
Carey did however make use of psychological games at the table, saying that she used to play poker with her sister, although the low-cut dress might have helped some, too. | | | - written by Betty Holden |
