Bentley bait tempts Paris
Paris Hilton is believed to be mulling over an offer from a leading gambling firm to attempt to win back her prized £100,000 Bentley.
The hotel heiress lost her motor on an ill-fated hand during a poker session at the family casino in Las Vegas last week, a loss that led to her folks, Rick and Kathy Hilton, banning their socialite daughter from gambling at their casino.
This appeared therefore to spell the final word on Paris' lost Bentley but PartyPoker, an online gambling group, has said it will award Paris a brand spanking new motor if she wins an arranged online match up against PartyPoker host Mike Sexton.
Warren Lush, spokesman for PartyPoker, explained: "Paris has said she is mad about poker and that she always wins in Vegas. We're offering her the chance to get lucky and she doesn't even need to leave her house.
"We're aware that her parents have banned her from gambling at their casino. This online challenge solves all her problems .She can cover her losses without stepping foot in there."
Paris, 25, small screen star of Simple Life, is said to be tempted by the offer, which was proffered over the weekend and is good for the next 30 days.
However, what with a $30 million personal fortune, she is hardly short of cash and the likelihood appears that PartyPoker's thinly-veiled attempt at gaining media coverage will fall flat on its face.
