Contrary to what one might think, both very good players have taken the initiative and have been happy to receive recognition. Zuckerman began playing poker just eleven months ago, but immediately became friends with Barbara Enright, the only woman who has reached the final table of the main event.

This is the biggest tournament he has played so far and, therefore, also his best result. In the hand that was eliminated, Zuckerman was all-in preflop with K 10 and met with the A A

Eric ‘Basebaldy’ Badwin. The flop gave him a couple but neither turn nor the river continued to improve his hand.

Unfortunately, the so-called Year of Women (also by Wicked Chops Poker), will have to wait .
