Has Pam Anderson watched the girl-bartered-to-pay-off-gambling-debt flick "Honeymoon in Vegas" one too many times? In what we sincerely hope is the maturing bombshell's idea of a joke, she tells Ellen DeGeneres that she's fallen for an unnamed professional poker player who spotted her $250,000 -- and didn't require a cash repayment.

"I paid off a poker debt with sexual favors and I fell in love," says Pam, 40, whose two ex-husbands -- Tommy Lee and Kid Rock -- got into a girlie fight during the MTV VMAs on Sunday. "It's so romantic. It's romance."

Anderson, who's been performing in Las Vegas with illusionist Hans Klok, refused to divulge the identity of her alleged debt collector-cum-beau and remained vague on what their future might hold.

"I'm not really engaged. I don't know what I am," she sidestepped. "We may never get that far. We're in love. This is nice."

Pam did concede that her all-important finger would remain band-free because she believes engagement rings are "bad luck ... through experience!"

Years ago, she declared diamonds are really about a man's insecurity over his "little thing," which may be why she opted to tattoo "Tommy" on her ring finger when she married the more-than-secure Lee (after their bust-up, she changed it to "Mommy" in honor of their sons Brandon and Dylan).

She reportedly received a baby fist-sized canary yellow sparkler from Kid Rock, whom she married multiple times in 2006 before divorcing him just once in February 2007.

Anderson, who was recently spotted hanging out with Paris Hilton's onetime sex tape partner in crime Rick Solomon, has apparently had a change of heart on her dating stance from just six months ago.

"I've tried to remarry -- move on -- like any other single mom I've tried to create a healthy example for my kids always," she wrote on her Web site in March. "That's why I realized early on that we are better off on our own right now."

As for the ongoing feud between her less-than-dapper exes, Anderson is keeping her nose -- and other protruding parts -- clear.

"I'm staying out of it," she told Ellen.

That may be tough.

"They both still very much love Pamela," a source tells FOX News. "I'm sure it all comes down to jealousy."
