Lily Elviro: Mrs.Poker Grinder




You definitely can't rebuff with her pretty and clever look at Lily Elviro without quickly taking distinguish of her obviously lavish assets. Aidily Elviro, who goes by the name of “Lily” has some striking finishes beyond coming in second to celebrity poker player Jernnifer Tilly at the World Poker Tour Ladies Night Out III not to mention that she's pregnant with her second child .

The rest came from a 12th place finish in the 2005 Mirage Poker Showdown's No-Limit Hold'em satellite $1500 buy in, and a 5th in the 04/05 WSOP circuit event at Lake Tahoe, again in the $1500 buy in No Limit game.

This hottest poker player has been playing since 2004 and has racked up over 40,000 in career winnings. Her poker game sure benefits from being married to a world class tournament poker player, and she continues to enter in medium stakes tournaments around the world.

Lily Elviro's first experience of playing poker came when she was a child when her family would play Cuban poker together. She was also around many casinos since her parents worked in the industry. When she became 21, she became a poker dealer and worked at the Seminole Casino in Hollywood, Florida.

Throughout her time at the poker tables, Lily Elviro keep an eye at the poker players and try to pick up tricks and techniques. She was particularly dazzled with a player named Michael “The Grinder” Mizrachi, and the young man was also more than a little drawn to the ravishing Lily Elviro. This is where she ended up meeting “The Grinder”. As it turned out, Mizrachi was actually a talented up-and-coming player who had given up dreams up being a doctor to pursue a career as a poker pro.

Lily Elviro’s biggest accomplishment at the poker table took place in 2005 at the WPT World Poker Challenge. When Mrs. Grinder grinded her way all the way to 27th place and took home $10,352 in prize money. When off the poker table, she spends most of her time looking after their kids and playing the occasional game of online poker.

Although Lily Elviro is still pretty new to the game, and while she is married to a pro she can still get rattled by other big names who might take a seat next to her. In a recent event she looked up as Alan Cunningham took a seat to her left and was heard to let an "Uh-oh" escape; of course, her husband would likely be thinking the same thing in that situation.

With home games likely being tough lessons in poker for both Lily and her husband, it is no question that poker fans will be keeping an eye on "Mrs. Grinder," who is certainly ready for a rematch with Tilly.

Lily Elviro is considered one of the toughest poker players around and unlike and the is the best all-around woman poker player in the world today.
