Annie Duke may not have captured her 1st WSOP Bracelet until ‘04 but she is one of the most feared poker competitors at the cash matches at The Bellagio in Las Vegas. Annie’s longawaited WSOP bracelet came with success at the "buried game" of Omaha hi lo.

While competitors from the "younger crowd" of poker run wild following a huge win at the tables, Annie goes home and becomes "mom" to her four children. She was born in New Hampshire and raised into a family of poker players. If you don’t accept that, watch her brother, Howard Lederer, in action who taught her how to wager on the game.

However, Annie Duke is no small fry kind of girl and has succeeded at her share of demanding tables, including knocking out Howard a few times along the way. They’re both players that have the skill to win the huge cash and do so with a smile.

Annie is a tough competitor at any table because she is a genuine poker player, but it’s a little more than simply being skilled at the game. Mrs. Duke is very intelligent and graduated from Columbia University where she majored in English and Psychology.

When you sit across from Annie at the table you’ll see Annie is there to compete in the game and she begins "summing" you up from the time you join the table. If you cannot play like a camp, then do not waste your time.

Earning over $3 million in tournament play, Mrs. Duke branched out to become a adviser to both the UltimateBet website and actor Ben Affleck, who wished to sharpen his abilities and develop into a force at the tables.

You may glimpse her at the Bellagio, you will see Annie on TV and you may even participate against her in a web poker game, but don’t count on an easy win. Except of course you’re a camp-in-the-making, you won’t beat her. Although, it would be exciting to mention you played at the same table as "The Duke".
