Trishelle Cannatella signs on as a sponsored pro.

Trishelle Cannatella is no stranger to the world of online poker. This stunner is more than just a pretty face: she's a top poker player too.

Poker News Daily recently interviewed Trishelle of 'The Dukes of Hazard: The Beginning', 'The Surreal Life,' 'Dr. Steveo,' 'Punk'd,' 'Fear Factor,' 'Criminal Minds,' and 'Ninja Cheerleaders' fame, to hear her thoughts on the big poker deal.

Poker is her game
Ever since she can remember Trishelle love the game of poker. It started with a lot of home games, a 'Poker for Dummies' guide and then live tournaments. Despite not having the bankroll for big events, she is big on talent and plenty capable. Trishelle was introduced to Absolute Poker via a friend who arranged charity tournaments and appearances for her. Even Phil Laak has taken her under his wing. So for her, poker is an absolute cinch.

On Absolute Poker Trishelle will be logged on as 'Trishelle-C.' She will write blogs and do appearances in poker promo videos. She is going to be the ambassador for Absolute Poker at big poker events like the WSOP and various charity tournaments too.

But getting respect at big poker events was initially not easy for Cannatella. It wasn't until Chris Ferguson (winner of 3 WSOP events and a staggering $7.1 million in prize money) introduced himself that she was taken seriously.

Other female poker pros include Lacey Jones and Tiffany Michelle, both of whom Cannatella has met before. With such a busy schedule Cannatella is certainly the buzz of the town and Absolute Poker are thrilled to have her on their team.
