Pam Anderson and husband Rick Salomon are due on our sunny shores any moment now, with the pair apparently deciding the couple that gambles together stays together. ("Not so!" - Ben Affleck & Jennifer Lopez). Actually, it would seem gambling is what ignited their love in the first place!

From news.com.au -

The on-again-off-again couple's people contacted Crown this week requesting a berth in the Aussie Millions Poker Championship be reserved for card shark Salomon.

Salomon is said to be a definite starter in the tournament, with an appearance fee being negotiated yesterday to bring Anderson out.

The tournament's main event starts on Monday, with many local and overseas stars including Michael Vartan, Jennifer Tilly, Shannon Elizabeth, Shane Warne, Mark Philippoussis and Joe Hachem forking out $10,000 for a shot at the $10 million prize pool.

Anderson said last year that she and Salomon - the ex-hubby of actor Shannen Doherty and Paris Hilton's sex tape co-star - took their 17-year friendship to the next level during a poker game.

"I left the table and my driver played in my place," she said.

Anderson said she returned to find herself more than $280,000 "in the hole to Rick".

"Rick, being the gentleman, said he would wipe my debt if I gave him a kiss, so I have to thank Vegas for our relationship switching gears," Anderson said.

The couple wed in the casino capital in October.

We look forward to hearing/making up delicious gossip regarding card shark celebs from Monday onwards. We dare say the odds of Shane Warne having a crack at Pammy are rather good.
