Poker Player Vanessa Rousso Selling Her Lamborghini Gallardo

Up for grabs is a sweet 2007 Lamborghini Gallaro owned by the attractive Poker player Vanessa Rousso. This car has a clean title, and has just under 13,000 miles on it. The only customization she had done was painting the stock rims. Vanessa Rousso, is a very interesting person though. At age 26, she is a french American law student, who is sponsered by PokerStars. That basically sums up to being able to travel around the world, and compete in all the major poker tournaments at no expense. Vanessa said she purchased this car as a 'small gift' for herself with all those poker winnings. I wonder what she will buy next!

The guys over at AskMen asked the Full Tilt Poker star how he came about this silver Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR seen above. The story is quite entertaining and hopefully one day the keys to this won't wind up in the middle of a poker hand. An excellent choice from the Mercedes line was made even though it was an impulse purchase.

We know you’re a sensible young man, but what’s your most extravagant purchase to date?

I went with a friend to help him buy a car, and there was this Mercedes McLaren SLR in the parking lot. I asked the salesman how much it was [and] I said, “That’s too much money for a car!” He said, “Take it for a test drive.” I got back and I’m like, “Where do I sign?”
