This Romanian blonde has been getting a lot of attention just the same way Clonie Gowen did when she broke on through the WSOP. Though Carmel Petresco has not been that high on the prize lists, she is been rated highly for her intelligent demeanour to the game. Just what we need - A bodacious blonde with loads of gray matter. Her interests range from philosophy, psychology and hold your breath - telepathy! Ok now she has us hypnotized.

She claims Daniel Alaei as the biggest influence in the way she plays. She is steadily increasing her rank in the WSOP tour. As thinsg are going we will probably find this Eastern Bloc blonde vying for the 'ultimate poker blonde' stakes soon enough. We can never get enough of blondes at our tables, so thank you Carmel for everything.

So next time you are in Vegas (she lives there) and find a leggy blonde with a purring accent you know who it is. And don't tell us that we didn't warn you that she may as well win your money.
