She is a beast. I don't know why we need a category for "top female" though.

I think I would pick her as a favorite in any field.

Because it would be factually incorrect to omit the word "female".

You don't think she's one of the best, if not the best, live tournament player today?

Congratz, she's deff one of the best live tournament players today, but you can't lay a claim that she's the best with the "mediocre" results she's had.

Pretty easy to say she's the best female tournament player though. And while that distinction might be a bit stupid for a game as poker, as long as females are enormously underrepresented in poker it's fine to make it imo.

This a factual statement, not an opinion.

Therefore it would be factually incorrect to omit the word 'female', because she is not the top tournament money winner of all time.

she tightened up quite a bit towards the end.. probably very conscious of her tendency to spew.

Fold equity aint all it's cracked up to be.

congrats..

The article doesn't say that she won, just that she is guaranteed $300k

Did she win?

Congratulations Vanessa Selbst! Hopefully the diversity in winners (nationality, gender, or whatever) helps expand interest in games!

Looking forward to seeing her enter the hall of fame someday!
