Hi -- I do play but not professionally (at least not yet but it's my passion and a goal) i practice everyday to get better and consider myself a student... hopefully will get the honor to play along side the greats one day including ANNIE! In my smaller games, I have seen first hand how some men (not all) react to a woman in the game, after a great hand I've been called everything fron a "lucky c--t" to a total slut? Previously I had no idea that Pocket Aces or even a decent bluff could make someone either of those things but I guess that's part of it when you are a lady in poker Way to go Annie and best wishes!
