Evelyn Ng was an unknown poker player until she was invited to the 2005 World Poker Tour Ladies Night competition. Eveybabee finished 2nd in the event, though she was a major underdog as an unknown in a field with such women's stars as Annie Duke, Jennifer Harman and Kathy Leibert.
Since that time, Evelyn Ng has appeared at more and more poker tournaments, though her only notable money finish was a 2007 $25,000 poker tournament at the Bellagio. The career Evelyn Ng poker winnings are over $300,000 for tournament poker. Evelyn Ng continues to play in cash games, which is where Ng played for 10 years before first entering a tournament on the poker circuit.
Evelyn Ng started her gambling career in the pool halls of Toronto. Evelyn hustled "private school kids" for their lunch money, according to one interview, from the time she was about 14 (1989). When she was 16 years old, Evelyn Ng met Daniel Negreanu, who was at the time also a young billiards player. The two became friends and had a relationship. Though the relationship has ended, Evelyn Ng and Daniel Negreanu remain good friends.
Joining Daniel Negreanu on the professional poker tournament was still a decade away, though. Evelyn Ng first experience in the poker world was as a poker dealer in Toronto.

Since then, Evelyn Ng has been turning up at more poker tournaments, though she has yet to match the success of her original appearance on the WPT.

Evelyn Ng has made several television appearances related to poker. Evybabee was on an episode of Criss Angel Mindfreak. Criss Angel tried to use his mindfreak abilities to persuade Evelyn to pick a losing hand. Criss Angel won three hands out of three, proving that (once again) the hand is quicker than the eye.
Evelyn Ng also appeared on the SpikeTV series, King of Vegas, where players play in four different casino games, including Texas Hold'Em and Blackjack. Evelyn also appeared as a poker croupier on Casino Casino, a U.K. game show.
