Poker Hostess strips down her clothes in Playboy

Poker Fans who look in this month's Playboy, is going to see a familiar face (and body) grace the cover. The former poker hostess for NBC's Poker After Dark and National Heads Up Poker Championship has chosen to get naked and pose as God created her, only sparsely covered with a red Christmas bow - the front, mind you. Within the magazine the bow is gone!

The 38-year-old Tweeden is not ashamed either of her age or appearance, and it is the primary reason why she chose to pose for the magazine:

"I think I look better now Than When I Was 21," says Tweeden to the sports channel ESPN. "I did this for myself and not anyone else. My husband and I had long talks before doing it. I'm not hurting anyone. If people don't like it, they don't have to look. I’m secure in who I am now,” says Tweeden to Playboy. “I’ve always been a goody-two-shoes girl, but I’m making a choice to shake things up.”

Tweeden is originally from Virginia, USA and has a past as a model. She has done campaigns for such well known brands like Hooters and was a regular part of the show "The Best Damn Sports Show Period" from 2000 to 2007. Then she was in the hostess role in the NBC poker show Poker After Dark. The show, however, the show were closed after 6 seasons.
