Fix Attention on Annie Duke
Annie Duke may not have won her 1st WSOP Bracelet until two thousand and four but Annie is still one of the most feared poker competitors around the ring matches at The Bellagio in Las Vegas. Annie’s long-awaited World Series of Poker win came with a win at the "forgotten game" of Omaha Hi-Lo.
While players from the "young crowd" of poker go crazy following a big success at the tables, Annie goes home to be "mum" to her four kids. She hails from New Hampshire and grew up in a family of card players. If you don’t accept that, watch her brother, Howard Lederer, in action, Howard taught her how to play poker.
However, Annie Duke is not a small fry kind of girl and has captured her cut of difficult tables, which includes knocking out Howard a few times on numerous occasions.
Winning well over three million dollars in tournament play, Annie became a advisor to both UltimateBet and actor Ben Affleck, who wished to develop his skills and become a big player at the poker table.
You might just run into her at the Bellagio, you’ll catch her on television and you might just even play with her in a web-based poker game, but do not expect an easy win. Unless you’re a champion-in-the-making, you won’t defeat her. although, it would be fun to say you played at the same table as "The Duke".
