According to Rick Freeman's recent article for the Associated Press, Benson has been playing everyday in preparation for the new gig. Apparently, Benson has been playing online, over her cell phone, or in any live games she can find as she attempts to immerse herself in the game."I'm still a young little poker player. I've got a long way to go. It is a thrill to me. They call it a sport now, so it's kind of cool for me to come in and be my own type of athlete," Benson said.
In addition to making money from the game, Benson also sees the charitable side of the poker as key reason for her involvement. "I'm hoping to really amass an empire with this poker. I love to give money away to charities, to change people's lives."
