Congratulations to all the Women that did so well at the WSOP Europe. I am still having trouble grasping the concept of an 18 year old WSOP Main Event Champion. Youngest bracelet winner by over 2 years and will always be the 1st woman WSOP Main Event Champion. Congratulations to Annette. I can’t wait until she can play legally in the US, because the publicity that will be around her when she comes to the WSOP in Las Vegas in 2010 will be nice to watch.

About Just Poker Talk

There’s a lot to learn about poker, much more than the game itself. The last few years are a perfect example of poker’s growth into mainstream American culture - books, movies, video games, television, poker players as celebrities, etc. Along with poker strategy and theory, Just Poker Talk plans to chronicle these happenings because it says something about society, about the state of the world, and, more than anything, we want to know what it all means.
