Ever since her childhood, Erin Ness has been playing poker. Winning a $10,000 buy-in in an office tournament at Maxim Magazine, she entered the 2004 World Series of Poker. She finished this event as the third highest female finisher and caught everyone’s attention; both because of her game style and her sweet behavior.

Erin Ness has also participated in the Game Show Network’s televised poker where she got the second place; this feat lead to another invitation from GSN for the Battle of the Ages.

Even though Erin Ness is still working with Maxim, she frequently finds time to play poker in New York poker clubs.
