Default Favorite Female Pro?

This should be an interesting bunch of replies LOL

Who (from the list) is your favorite FEMALE Pro and why?

Mine is pretty obvious...LOL...I like Jennifer because she's got a great personality, and that STARE of hers could KILL lol

I don't see a list but it's clearly NOT Clonie Gowen or Jennifer Tilly. I think hands down it's got to be Jen Harman. I don't know how she does in ring games, but Annette Obrestad is a freakin MTT phenom. I think she just turned 19. If she continues to play, I imagine she will considered among the best female players in 10 years. Some will say that about her now.

I really think Annie believes she is better than she actually is. I also don't think she is emotionally stable. I have seen her blow up from time to time. Ng really has not had much success and don't understand y her name is ever mentioned. She is only known bc of her longstanding friendship w/ Negreanu and her Bodog sponsorship and affiliation w/ David Williams (luck box). I had been watching the 2004 WSOP reruns on ESPN and man that kid was lucky on multiple occasions to not bust b4 the final table. I have spoken to several players on the circuit who have said that this is a common occurence in tournaments with him. He gets it in bad and somehow manages to get lucky for crucial pots.

Jen for sure. Although her run of cards has been bad of late, I think she is still awesome. And like Bandit said about Annie, at least Jen doesn't think she is all that. There is something abour her... Me and my girlfriend were watching Poker After Dark last night and we pretty much said at the same time that she looks like a duck. Not to be rude towards her though. But she kinda does... but i dont know how. She is still awesome though. I <3 Jen.

As for Jen I agree whole-heartedly. As for Annie, I think being the sister of Howard Lederer gives her a big ego, but she is a fair player...I do agree that she needs to learn some self-discipline when it comes to her fits of anger though LOL She wasn't like that til she got her bracelet in '04...I guess money really does change some people...who knows...maybe she's picking up some of the tantrums she deals with from her kids LOL

Annie plays/is apart of UB.com... And look who else is on there... The mighty Phil.
Maybe they both goto "I'm better then you classes" and Anger Non-Management courses.
I've been watching that "The Best Darn Poker Show" and they are just as bad as each other.
Over talking each other, having tanties. and going mental.

Default All are good

Every player in your list has earned their keep at the tables. I pick Jen Harmen, I think she has a great attitude and she is a fighter. She used to look tired and frazzled to me, almost dirty, then I found out she has kidney problems and had to have a transplant. Now she is looking healthier. I can relate to her, I have had some kidney stones and I can tell you kidney problems are painful.

All of these players are in the top tier of our game. It would be an honor to play with any of them (and hopefully take their chips, lol).

Same here, Vito. I had stones a few years ago that literally had me curled up in the fetal position and climbing sideways up the back of the couch......they say stones are the worst pain next to giving birth......if that is the case then it's no wonder why I don't intend to have any kids lol I don't want to feel pain like that ever again in my life. That pain was worse than the motorcycle accident that almost killed me where I hit the pavement face-first. Now, if that doesn't put it into some perspective, I don't know what does.

When Jen is in the game, you kind of forget that she's a girl.......... She definitely doesn't feel the need to remind people nor should she. She's cool.

My favorite is not really there but I guess Jennifer Tilly is too new to be called a pro.

Jen is by far the best on the list, although Annette is so incredible. Has anyone here actually watched her play that $4 SNG blind and win? I saw almost all of it, skipped some in the middle, saw her get lucky a couple times, but holy cow, crazy.
