For years, Krisztina made her mark on the world through beauty pageants and competitions. In her time on the Hungarian beauty circuit, the young woman found herself ranking repeatedly in second place until the 2008 Miss Earth competition. She took the crown for the event and led as a positive role model in her capacity.

Since then her attention has turned from the competitive beauty pageants of Europe to a different sort of competition. She’s turned her focus to poker and turned many heads doing it. This Hungarian bombshell has begun to play in many live events. In an interview with a Hungarian based magazine, she admits to dressing provocatively to distract her competitors, and has found this strategy enhances her chances to win a pot.
Although she’s only been playing competitively for a short time, she does have a few cashes in minor events and is striving to get better with her game. Currently she competes in No Limit Hold’em. Her biggest cash was in the 2010 People’s Poker Tour in Budapest. She came in 4th and took home nearly 21 thousand dollars.
In 2011 she entered the World Series of Poker Main Event and was quickly pushed out on day one. During the course of the event, she started to turn heads for another reason. She was railing her boyfriend Daniel Negreanu. Many avid poker players took notice and turned green with envy for Daniel.
