Las Vegas 2024 Super
Bowl Streaker!

Mrs. Duke mightn’t have captured her 1st World Series of Poker Bracelet until two thousand and four but she remains one of the most powerful poker players at the live action games at The Bellagio in vegas. Annie’s longawaited WSOP bracelet came with a win at the "buried game" of Omaha hi/low.

While competitors from the "younger generation" of poker run wild after a large win at the tables, Annie goes back home to be "mom" to her four kids. Annie was born in New Hampshire into a family of card players. If you don’t believe that, watch her brother, Howard Lederer, in action who coached her how to gamble on the game.

However, Annie Duke is no small-potatoes girl and has won her share of hard tables, including eliminating Howard along the way on several occasions. They’re both competitors that have the skill to capture the huge money and do it with a grin.

Mrs. Duke is a tough competitor at any poker table because she is a real poker player, but it’s a bit more than just being good at the game. Annie Duke is incredibly intelligent and graduated from Columbia University where she took a double major in Psychology and English.

When you are seated across from Annie at the table you’ll see Annie is there to compete in the game and she starts "sizing" you up as soon as you sit down at the poker table. If you cannot compete like a camp, then do not waste your time.

Acquiring over 3 million dollars in tournament competitions, Annie branched out to become a adviser to both UltimateBet.com and Hollywood actor Ben Affleck, who aspired to sharpen his abilities and develop into a power at the poker table.

You might just see her at the Bellagio, you’ll notice Annie on television and you might even participate against her in a web poker game, but do not expect an easy win. Unless you are a champion-in-the-making, you’ll not beat her. However, it would be fun to mention you sat at the same table as "The Duke".
