Paris Hilton knows how to make headlines and lose big

Paris Hilton should not go out without a leash. The American heiress, who has the media coverage of her every move, made the "silly headlines" this week when she lost around GBP 100 000 as well as her Bentley car, in a poker game at a land based casino.

This led the management at Partypoker to an opportune event. To invite Paris to play heads up No Limit Holdem poker against PartyPoker host Mike Sexton. The prize: the return of her expensive car.

The offer has been made to Paris, if she chooses to accept it, she has to do so within the month. The marketing and media blitz will be great airtime for both PartyPoker as well as Paris who enjoys the public limelight. They have even agreed to host the event at a land casino.

Paris has made public how much she adores playing poker. She adds that she always wins in Vegas. According to spokesman for PartyPoker, Warren Lush, the company has made an offer she doesn’t need to leave her house to collect. However, it is well known, that Paris's parents have banned her from gambling at their casino. Thus the online challenge, solves all these problems and more.
