Jennifer Leigh

Jennifer "Jennicide" Leigh The Princess, will be one of the featured players on the International Poker Association Tour. Jennifer`s love for poker started online where she quickly mastered the game tapping into her video game and computer knowledge she mastered when she was younger. Passionate about her new hobby, Jennifer read six books on poker in the course of one week and began studying hand histories to enhance her online playing skills.

Within one year of playing Jennifer became the highest ranked female in tournaments at one of the largest online poker sites. As a result, Jennifer was invited in July 2005 by GSN to play Poker Royales' Battle of the Ages along with such pros as Dan Harrington, Barbara Enright and T.J. Cloutier. She played four televised tournaments, which culminated in her beating Harrington, as well as Miami John Cernuto in a heads up match to pocket $16,000.

Moving her game up a notch at the ripe age of 21, Jennifer started playing the highest stakes online at the 100/200 level. Jennifer continued sharpening her poker skills on the tournament circuit. In September 2005, she placed 9th in the World Championship of Online Poker earning $10,000 in the $1,000.00 limit hold`em event. At the World PokerTour PokerStars Caribbean Adventure in January 2006, she placed 42nd out of 724 players for $13,500. To date, Jennifer has won over $100,000.00 in tournament winnings online.

She has also proved a worthy competitor in a battle of wits by holding her own against Pokers notorious Mike "The Mouth" Matusow with who she recently appeared on Cardplayers "The Circuit" radio show.

Born August 10, 1983, Jennifer still resides in her hometown of Wilmington, Delaware when she is not traveling around the world pursuing her passion for poker. At the age of 12, Jennifer created the online alias Jennicide, which her legions of online fans still know her as. She says she selected the name since she thought it sounded dark and mysterious while at the same time being very close to her real name.

When she`s not working Jennifer loves spending time with her friends, family and her Maltese puppy "Icey." Her other loves include working out with her personal trainer, nightclubbing with the girls, although she claims to be a terrible dancer, and traveling around the world. Her secret tell...Jennifer would gratefully exchange personal poker lessons for a date with Irish bad boy Collin Ferrell.

Currently focusing on playing live tournaments, Jennifer can be seen as part of the upcoming IPA Tour which begins in May 2006 and will hit such hot spots as Los Angeles, Niagara Falls, Ireland, Monaco, Mexico and Las Vegas. Jennifer will also be a featured player at the World Series of Poker Ladies Event on the Queens of Heart team sponsored by the IPA and Elle Magazine led by team captain Jennifer Tilly. A portion of her winnings from the event will be to the American Heart Association recognizing that heart disease is the number one killer among women.
