Liv Boeree wins the EPT San Remo - Page 12 - Poker News

Well I live here in LA and everyday i see goodlooking women and to be honest nobody would even look at her here, she is very average here, maybe in Wisconsin or Nebraska but not here.

Liv is a clear 6 in LA(and im being generous here) and could be 9 in Wisconsin and a 10 in Women's prison.

Yes, but those women are not good poker players. Or astrophysicists. Or heavy metal guitar players.

You can keep the vapid skanks; Liv sounds much more interesting (and isn't hard on the eyes, either).

So yes, barring inflation, Liv won more than Annette

fyp

You're not comparing the same thing, because the pound crashed against the dollar inbetween times.

Congrats to Liv and Mike, it's great to see British players doing well on the poker scene, and the media reaction here will certainly be +ev for the game.

this thread made me chuckle - while Liv is a fine player, is does illustrate the opportunity she has been afforded along the way.

I was amazed to visit BBC news this morning and see a positive report on poker. We need more of this to grow the UK player pool and hopefully start to change opinions of poker as a whole.

Vicky may indeed be lovely, but I find it interesting that she hasn't stated one solitary word of congratulations to Liv on her victory.

No mention on her blog...not even a tweet for her fellow country(women). In the past, Vicky has been quick to offer support and well-dones to numerous UK players.

Silence speaks volumes...

lol, so because she satellited in, means she just cuts her backers action and then ships the 1.25million all for herself?

she is still backed, ducy?

Liv is now 7th in career tournament winning for women according to Hendon Mob

Not the highest in Euros and Dollars. But is the highest sterling amount ever won by a woman.

"Sensibly on a new kitchen and the mortgage", lol wtf, this is too funny. If I won that kinda money, I'd buy a restaurant, not a new kitchen.

Even tho she's a girl, I'd bet Liv will spend some of that on hookers n blow! That's the way to do it.
