It was recently announced that Anna Kournikova would be replacing Jillian Michaels as a trainer on the popular TV show, “The Biggest Loser.” Ms. Kournikova was touted as a world-class athlete. She played a lot of world-class athletes but rarely beat them. Her consistent losing made its way into the jargon of the Texas Hold ’em poker game. For those not familiar with the game, each player is dealt two “hold” cards face down. The players combine these cards with five community cards that are dealt face up to make the best poker hand. Various hold card pairs get names for a variety of reasons. The combination of a two and a ten is called a “Doyle Brunson” because of a historic hand Brunson won with those hold cards.
The combination of an Ace and a King is notorious in Texas Hold’em because inexperienced players will bet a lot of money on this pair of cards since they are the two highest cards in the deck. The reality is, even the lowliest scoring hand, a pair of deuces, beats an Ace and a King. What is the nickname for this hand? It is called the Anna Kournikova. Ask a poker player why the Ace / King hold card pair is called Anna Kournikova and you will hear something to the effect of, “it’s the prettiest hand that never wins.”
Maybe it is apropos for Anna to be on “The Biggest Loser.” After all, one thing she knows a lot about is losing big.
I like anna kournikova because she is pretty and the same time very good in tennis. “*”:,

If being beautiful is part of how a Russian tennis player is judged then the right person to pick would Maria Sharapova who is not only beautiful, but she knows how to win. In the States we also have a beautiful woman that knows how to win. Her name is Serena Williams. At the end of the day, if the Wicked Witch of the West had a great serve and volley game, my money would be on her to win Wimbledon. A pretty loser is still a loser.

If she was a runway model for a living, that would be great but she was a tennis player. Aranxia Sanchez-Vicario has short legs but she won a lot of tennis matches.
