Clonie Gowen

Okay, this pic is from Maxim, but it really isn't a great pic of Clonie. It's just the most babed up I could find. The motorcycle jacket pic is sexier in my opinion.

Cycalona 'Clonie' (not Cloney) Gowen is a legit poker babe. She plays a mean game finishing top 10 at the WPT Costa Rica Classic and winning the World Poker Tour Ladies' Night tournament in 2003 and now being a member of the Full Tilt Poker team. Yes, you can sit at a table with Clonie at Full Tilt.

As well as appearing in a number of magazines, Clonie is also a regular columnist for Bluff magazine (official mag of the WPT). Clonie is also a board member the non-profit United States Poker Association. Originally from Oklahoma, now living in Dallas, Texas, Clonie Gowen is active in tournaments throughout the country, organizes charity events, teaches new players the game, is a busy mother of two. All this and she still finds time for the eye candy thing...

Poker Christmas Cards

Okay, this has nothing to do with babes, poker or otherwise, nor is it the right season, but check out these poker christmas cards. They're cool.

Santa and either the White Rabbit or the Easter Bunny are playing poker with a leprechaun or maybe the mascot for St. Patrick's Day and an angel. And it looks like Santa's had a couple drinks...

Anyway, if you need to get some early Christmas shopping done, click the image at right.

Susan Kim

Okay, to my knowledge Susan "Suzie" Kim has never been a swimsuit model, never exposed herself for the cameras and likely never expected to be featured on a blog about poker babes, but she's a babe all the same. Called Suzie "Homemaker" by the ever annoying Vince Van Patten during the Bay 101 Shooting Star (World Poker Tour) where she made it to the final table, Suzie caught the attention of fans and pros alike.

Ever notice how goofy Phil Gordon gets around attractive women...?

Anyway, Suzie Kim is from New York, lives in the bay area, has an MBA from Harvard, is a former investment banker and is a damn sharp poker player.
