Three months after the birth of her son Sean Preston, Britney Spears showed up, hubby and little tyke in tow, to the launch party for her father's new poker venture. Jamie Spears has entered into a joint poker project with the Maloof brothers, owners of the Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. The partnership concerns the Palms Home Poker Host, a poker software program founded by “Daddy" Spears that helps people organize professional-caliber poker games in the comfort of their own homes.

A plumper Britney was all smiles, arriving at the poker party hand-in-hand with husband Kevin Federline. This was a site for the sore eyes of paparazzi and gossip columnists who, for months, have anticipated that Mr. and Mrs. Ferderline were about to call it quits. Instead, the poker party served as an opportunity for the Spears/Federline clan to step out as one big happy family. Britney's mom gushed over her son-in-law. Disregarding Kevie's relentless partying, she preferred to focus on his wholehearted embrace of fatherhood, down to the dirty diapers.

In the business of family politics, the Palms Home Poker Host launch event benefited all parties involved. While Britney got a platform upon which to present the Spears/Federlines as just your average All-American family, in the spirit of the Bradys and Beavers, Jamie Spears benefited from his daughter's star power, which undoubtedly has made the new poker software just that much more newsworthy.
