Annie Duke might not have captured her first World Series of Poker Bracelet until two thousand and four but she is one of the most feared poker competitors around the ring games at The Bellagio in Las Vegas. Annie’s long-overdue WSOP bracelet came with a win at the "cast aside game" of Omaha hi-low.

While competitors from the "younger crowd" of poker run crazy after a huge win at the tables, Annie goes home to be "mom" to her 4 kids. Annie was born in New Hampshire into a family of card players. If you don’t accept that, watch her brother, Howard Lederer, in action who educated her how to bet on the game.

However, Mrs. Duke is no small fry kind of girl and has succeeded at her cut of difficult tables, including eliminating Howard along the way on a couple of occasions. They are both competitors that have the ability to acquire the big bucks and do so with a smile.

Annie is a strong competitor at any poker table considering that she is a legitimate poker player, but it’s a bit more than just being strong at the game. Annie is surprisingly smart and graduated from Columbia University where she took a double major in Psychology and English.

When you sit across from her at the table you’ll see Annie is there to compete in the game and she starts "summing" you up as soon as you sit down at the poker table. If you cannot gamble like a camp, then don’t waste your time.

Earning over 3 million dollars in tournament play, Annie Duke branched out to become a adviser to both the UltimateBet website and actor Ben Affleck, who aspired to enhance his techniques and develop into a force at the poker table.

You may glimpse her at the Bellagio, you’ll see her on TV and you might even compete against her in a net poker game, but do not count on an easy win. Except of course you are a champion-in-the-making, you won’t beat her. Although, it would be fun to mention you sat at the at the table with "The Duke".
