Poker news tagged with 'lamborghini gallardo'

Vanessa Rousso really seems to be a person who sticks to what she says. A bit more than a year ago, she purchased a 2007 yellow Lamborghini Gallardo, a car which she had wanted to buy for a long time. 

When Vanessa showed her dream car to the media shortly after, she told one of the interviewers that she would only keep it for one year. The reason for this was that she had bought it for an amazing prize and the value of the car would almost be the same in one year. She said that it would be like having an amazing car 1 year for free.

Now, her car is for sale on Ebay. In other words, she seems to be a person who keeps her word, and also a person who holds tight to the money - even though she has won millions of dollars and has a very generous sponsor, PokerStars.
