Next Female Poker Star? - Page 8 - Poker News

Why don't you just tell us what your relationship is to her and why you hate her so much instead of just rambling about the same **** over and over every time this thread is bumped?

BB, she's way too hot for you, let her go. You will get over her, trust me. Time heals.

I'm surprised Anna has a wiki page. Maybe she did it herself.

I've noticed someone called Melissa Burr make a couple of final tables at this years wsop and apparently she plays high stakes cash games, I've never heard of her until recently but her star could be on the rise!

She reminds me of Lisa Hamilton, another high stakes player who also prefers cash to tournaments. Here's Lisa at the PCA.

I meant that from what I know they both crush high stakes cash, prefer cash to tournaments and became known to the wider community thanks to some good results in Vegas.

Nobody wins at pokers versus him, seems like that trend is the same in prop bets. My best and only advice is to stay out of harms way! That's about 0EV, and thats probably as good as it gets.

Yep confirmed, Melissa is the next female poker star. And I'm happy she's a mixed game specialist rather than that other game.

Before the PPC started, I said elsewhere that Vanessa should not have played. She wasn't even the best female in the field. I think that's an accurate call.

Yes I know, $2500 though. But I don't see Vanessa doing so well in a 50k mixed tournament, even less so if it was just HORSE.

Straight out NLH or PLO, different story.

Grunch: Vanessa Selbst is an awful hambeast. Her eyerolling ("nice hand") when amateurs call her down with a somewhat decent hand would make Eli Yale punch her in the face.

Cliffs: Eli Yale is dead; Vanessa Selbst somehow graduated from Yale Law; She is an awful hambeast; Eli Yale would piss on her grave.
