Women Winning Poker Tournaments


Recommended Posts

Almost all low buy in live tourneys are turbos imo, they just don't call them turbos.
+1. the only casino near me has a starting stack of 2500 and levels are 25/50 50/100 100/200 200/400not to mention the buyin is $30 plus $15 in rake. very +EV tourney imo..

jeez, the casino where I play has about the same structure but rake is only $8 out of a $60 buyin...feels like quite the deal compared to yours.

I was told women did belong playing poker I told them back them to go f u c k your selves
How did this go unnoticed. Funny though, I had the exact same conversation with a guy recently.
and Nutzzcase color changes, in face, when there face goes from pale to blushing, is a sign they got there hand, blood flows to the face on excitement. The opposite also when they didn't make there hand , if they lose color could mean they did not make there hand. Also look for Jugular Vein distention shows anger when a hand is not made, or when they are tense. Looking at the chest for respiration changes if the respiratory rate increases shows excitement either that they don't want to be called or that they made there hand.
Please go on, I'm taking notes but need a bit more before I can feel truly confident in my reads, Sensei.
Just saying people that women deserve the right to make there mark.
Poker isn't like politics. People don't deserve to make a mark. They either do or they don't, and it's usually down to merit.

agree really
Rose, she is a not a good poker player at all.Just because you've heard of somebody doesn't mean that they are any good.A friend of mine is a very good player. She's beaten online poker as high as 25/50 NL but mostly plays 5/10 NL these days since the games have become tougher and she's cashed in a few live tourneys but she plays very few. I'm not going to name her but even if I did nobody here would know who she is but she's a legit very good poker player who is much better than the vast majority of the women who you might know from getting on TV. Oh she's also 40.

You are seeing a statistical anomaly. Historically, in open events women have underperformed in poker relative to their numbers in the field. Someone did the math not that long ago and I think I read that 8-10% of open WSOP event runners are women, yet they win significantly less than 8-10% of the bracelets.Why?Winning poker requires significant aggression. Aggression is significantly less accepted socially by women and the amount that is naturally occuring is typically pretty well repressed societally. I'm sure Jonas would have some input here, but if you've played much poker at all, it's just the truth that women tend to play more passively than men. Kudos to both Vanessa and Liv though. They're both EXTREMELY intelligent women and have worked very hard to get where they are. Liv has trained very extensively with both binger brothers if you saw them on the live webcast.
I think this might've been the only substantive post ITT, and IMO it's the main reason that over time we'll see female poker players achieve success that's statistically commensurate with their numbers; as aggression from a female becomes less socially taboo, that lack of constraint will start to manifest itself in more aggressive female poker players. This is a generational thing, though, not something that will change in just a few years.Also, Liv Boeree is smoking hot.

Agree with what? She's a bitch and is awful at poker
yes I was being sarcastic cause she is one I cannot stand as I female poker player Bob, and I agree with you. I really don't like her attitude and how she represents females in poker.
