Poker woman plays for £2.2m prize

Another story from the BBC:

A Kent woman who learnt to play four years ago is going into battle in Monte Carlo to try to win £2.2m.

Liv Boeree, 25, from Milstead, near Sittingbourne, won £1.1m earlier this week in a preliminary round in the European Tournament (EPT) event.

TV presenter and model Miss Boeree, an astrophysics graduate from Manchester University, is playing in the final which starts on Sunday in Italy.

She is only the third woman to win an EPT event since the tour began in 2004.

From gambling fame to murder charge

Another story from the BBC:

BBC News

More than 12 years after the disappearance of his American wife, champion Marcus Bebb-Jones is a step closer to being extradited from the UK to face trial in the US for her murder.

The case has seen a number of bizarre twists that have yet to be explained.

These include Mr Bebb-Jones going on a Las Vegas "playboy weekend", partially funded by his wife’s credit cards, then shooting himself in the head in a failed suicide attempt - all in the immediate aftermath of her disappearance.
