I received an e-mail this week from a poker dealer who worked at the Grand Casino in Biloxi, Mississippi. Her casino was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, and she is looking for work anywhere she can get it, even Las Vegas.

I thought the best way I could help her would be to post her e-mail on the website. I know a lot of Las Vegas poker room managers visit this website, so I�m hoping someone could at least give her an interview. Also, I know there are several poker rooms opening soon, so hopefully someone can help!

Her e-mail address is MicheleLyn1107@aol.com, and below is the e-mail she sent me.

Hi my name is Michelle Bourquard. I worked at the Grand Casino in Biloxi and thanks to Hurricaine Katrina I no longer have a job. I need a poker job somewhere and I just dont know where to turn. There are hundreds of poker dealers out of work over here and I feel like I have to leave this area to find employment fast. If you have any good ideas it will be greatly appreciated. I have been a poker dealer for 8 years now, and I really know the game. Thanks, Michelle

Thanks for your help everyone!
