WPT Shooting Stars Announced; Van Patten Poker Nightmare and Ivy Teves FHM January Girl

A trio of stories connected to the World Poker Tour as the Bay 101 Shooting Stars are announced, Vince Van Patten’s worst nightmares come true on an episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and Royal Flush Girl Ivy Tevez stars as one of the Girls of FHM January 2015 in the Philippines.

The World Poker Tour (WPT) Bay 101 Shooting Stars event may not take place until March, but we already know the 52-players who will be carrying a bounty on their heads when the fun begins.

Live satellites for the event will start operating on Feb, 16 with a series of buy-ins ranging from $275, $550, and $1,100 planned throughout both Feb and March. There will be a two-day $2,100 event on Mar 8-9, a $25,000 High Roller event Mar 11-12, with the $7,500 televised Main Event scheduled to take place Mar 9 -13.

The Main Event will take place over five days, and players can re-enter, if eliminated, up to the beginning of Day 2. The chip leaders on Day 1A and Day 1B will both receive a $10,000 bonus and each Shooting Star will carry a $2,500 bounty on this mug.

The list is subject to change, but here it is as it stands today.
