So back in the media area while a couple of hundred poker players were grinding it out in the tournament area, Team Bodog poker pro Jean-Robert Bellande was busy taking on WPT hostess extraordinaire Kimberly Lansing in a heads-up poker match.

The match was the result of an earlier interview that Bellande had with Lansing in which he was talking about his prodigious heads-up skill and she was commenting that she wasn't so bad herself. That devolved into a prop bet over a heads-up poker match with the winner getting to decide what costume the other would wear to an upcoming event.

Bellande ended up the winner and from the sound of it is tossing up Snow White and Wonder Woman. Before you ask, one of the stipulations was that it had to be camera-appropriate. Bellande is also breathing easier after the win since Lansing really took hold of the "Tinkerbell" idea for him, which has also now been raised as a possibility for her.

We got some pretty funny video of the whole thing that we will be editing and getting up tonight for you to enjoy while you're supposed to be working tomorrow. You may thank us later.
