Poker Writer Nolan Dalla’s Past Comes Back to Haunt Him Amidst Sexual Harassment Claims

• Married man Dalla accused of burying his head in a female poker player’s cleavage
• Dalla had previously posted disparaging remarks about female bartenders on his blog
• “Some bubbly bimbo blonde with her jugs halfway out of her shirt was totally oblivious to what was going on,” he says of a female bartender unaware of what game was being televised on the big screen
• Fellow female poker pro Liv Boeree asserts that Dalla’s full rant “belittles women”

Famed poker columnist Nolan Dalla is fighting off allegations that he sexually harassed a fellow female poker pro.  Past blog postings, meanwhile, are not exactly helping his case.

The married Dalla is accused of burying his head in the chest of poker player Jaclynn Moskow and shaking his head in her cleavage.

A past post in Dalla’s blog has since gained more intense scrutiny following the incident with Ms. Moskow.

In that 990-word diatribe (still found on his blog at the time this was going to press), Dalla discusses his perceived deficiencies of female bartenders.

In the 2013 post, Dalla goes on about his visit to a New Orleans bar where a television was playing a lacrosse match instead of an NBA playoff game.

“Some bubbly bimbo blonde with her jugs halfway out of her shirt was totally oblivious to what was going on,” Dalla wrote.

“I sat there for perhaps two full minutes while Barbi (or whatever her name was) was gabbing away with a couple of hard di--ks at the other end of the counter. All I wanted was a little Johnny Walker Black and maybe the score of the Chicago-Miami game. Was that too much to ask? After all, this is a bar right?

“I wanted to keep as open a mind as possible,” said Liv Boeree, a popular PokerStars pro. “but reading that blog of Nolan's makes it difficult.

“Even if he’s writing a funny piece, it’s still an opinion piece. It’s what he thinks. I find it disgusting and I really don't like it. It's hugely belittling of women.”

The blog post pales in comparison to allegations that the married Dalla buried his head in the chest of poker player Jaclynn Moskow and shook his head in her cleavage.

But after Moskow came forward, Dalla’s bimbos-as-bartenders blogpost was widely circulated among players.

“The problem I have is none of these brands (like WSOP or “Poker Night in America”) officially acknowledged anything happened,” said Ebony Kenney.

As of press time, that post and many other sexist rants are still available on his blog.

Meanwhile, The World Series of Poker — self-labeled “the most trusted name in poker” — links directly to Dalla’s personal blog at their site.

WSOP executive director and Caesars Entertainment vice president Ty Stewart did not return repeated calls for comment.
