Stars learn from the poker pros in the Bahamas

The Caribbean Adventure has provided an opportunity for celebrity poker players to take some pointers from the professionals this week.

PokerListings.com noted that Carlos Bernard of TV's 24 was among those in attendance at the Bahamas.

And he explained that he was able to sit down with some of the experienced heads and refine his skills.

"I'm not hustling anybody right now," the actor was quoted as saying. "So it's been good to play with the pros and learn a few tricks."

Also involved at the tables this week was former Playboy Playmate of the Year Jayde Nicole, who took part in the main event.

"It's fun … I get a funny reaction from people", she noted, adding that she enjoys meeting other players during games.

The tournament was eventually won by Harrison Gimbel, who took home $2.2 million and at 19 became the youngest victor in the history of the tournament.
