Anna Nicole Smith has died at age 39.  She collapsed at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Florida.  A cardiac distress call was made by her private nurse from her hotel room around 1:38 p.m.  The hotel operator called paramedics immediately.  They performed CPR and inserted a breathing apparatus in her throat. Smith was reportedly unresponsive and transported to Memorial Regional Hospital where she died shortly after.
 
Smith was apparently not feeling well, complaining of flu-like symptoms the past few days. Reports of possible heart failure have been mentioned as well as her obvious drug use.  Smith seemed under the influence of drugs in recent interviews. 
 
Her son, Daniel passed away in September of this past year.  His death was ruled as an accidental overdose but is still under investigation.  A combination of methadone and anti-depression medications were found in his system. 
 
Smith checked into the Seminole Hard Rock Casino on Monday and was scheduled to checkout on Friday. She was in Florida dealing with a lawsuit against Trim Spa.

Jamie gold and Crispin Leyser settle WSOP disputeAccording to the Associated Press, World Series of Poker main event winner Jamie Gold has agreed to settle the dispute over half of the tournament's $12 million grand prize with Los Angeles-based TV producer Bruce Crispin Leyser. They agreed the matter should be resolved "without litigation." "Jamie always intended on sharing his winnings with Crispin," the statement says. "Jamie and Crispin are happy to report they have fully settled this matter. They are pleased to be closing this chapter and look forward to continued success."

Jamie Gold is a former Hollywood agent turned poker pro. He defeated 8,772 players to win the World Series of Poker Main Event tournament last summer. The two did not make clear how much money Leyser would receive. Gold already withdrew $6 million, half of his take from winning the poker tournament. The other half was frozen by court order after Leyser filed suit against Gold in August, claiming they had agreed to split the winnings.

Leyser said Gold agreed to the split in exchange for him finding celebrities to represent the "Bodog" label in the Main Event. Leyser even kept a voicemail Gold left on his phone on the final day of the tournament in which Gold promised to pay Leyser "your half." At a December court hearing, U.S. District Court Judge Roger L. Hunt rejected a motion by Gold's lawyers to lift an injunction set in September on the $6 million. The money which was being held at the tournament host, the Rio casino-hotel, has been ordered to be moved into an interest-bearing account. Hunt also indicated Leyser likely would win his claim to the $6 million.
