Ellen Degeneres is a woman of many talents, from stand-up comedy to acting \u2013 and now, she can add poker to the list. Recently, her wife Portia De Rossi gifted her a one-on-one poker coaching session <\/strong>with the acclaimed Vince Van Patten. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The coaching session was given to Ellen for her 62nd<\/sup> birthday,<\/strong> and she received her lesson recently. A small portion of the session was recorded on Portia\u2019s Instagram, with Van Patten providing Ellen with some key information about player behaviour. He stated that players who act strong tend to be weak while players who act weak tend to have a stronger hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
