Players have to make adjustments on the fly and now Natasha Barbour has a little companionship at her table. He’s very popular with her tablemates but that might change if the little guy brings her luck.
Barbour is back in action after taking her skills around the state. She looks to stay hot at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino with her biggest career cash came here after a 12th place finish in the 2014 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open. Barbour was also an entertaining participant when Poker Night in America taped their Ladies Night cash game show here in December.
