Voted among Jenny
Woo's Top 10 Hottest
Poker Players Who
Look Like They Might
Not Quite Be Legal
For Her To Pounce
On, looks could be
deceiving at the
poker table and at
this year's WSOP.
"I find him quite
adorable," commented
Gambling911.com
intrepid reporter,
Jenny Woo.
"But I would not
want to play poker
with him."
Minieri has cashed
four times at the
World Series of
Poker (WSOP). At the
2007 WSOP Main
Event, Minieri who
once was the chip
leader coming off of
day 3 finished in
96th place out of a
field of 6358
entries.
At the European
Poker Tour (EPT) in
Baden, Austria (The
Big Double 2006), at
the €5,000 No Limit
Hold'em event
Minieri finished in
3rd earning €125,780
($159,763).
For those who just
watch the World
Series of Poker on
ESPN, you'd probably
describe Dario
Minieri as the kid
who emulated Harry
Potter with complete
with
Gryffindor-styled
scarf, writes David
Aydt of
PokerFace.com.
For those at the
same poker table as
him probably
describe him as a
terror.
 Said
one player: "I
played him with the
109 +R , Such a sick
player, in my
opinion one of the
best online players
in the world."
He was the first
player to ever
purchase a Porsche
on the PokerStars.
Other things he
could have 3000
PokerStars duffle
bags or 6000 posters
of Isabel Mercier.
"I prefer the
Porsche!" Minieri
told
PokerNews.com.
