Women in Poker
Poker at the land and online casino gambling venues has long been associated as
a game primarily played by men – in recent years though that has begun to change
significantly with women increasingly beginning to participate in poker
gambling. The online casinos have added to the number of women gamblers as well
because women are able to anonymously join the game without the stigmatization
that was once associated with female poker players. In fact, women poker players
are still the minority for sure but the recently finished 2008 WSOP event proved
women players are fast becoming a force to be reckoned with even at the top
levels.
To address the fact that women poker players are entering the land and online
casino poker market in larger numbers a new poker podcast will welcome some of
the top names in the women’s poker gambling industry for interviews and
discussion. Dianna Donofrio hosts the podcasts at WomensPokerYak.net and
according to recent media, the podcasts offer one of the top outlets for
prominent female land and online casino poker gamblers to share their views.
Top names planned for the upcoming podcasts include Nolan Dalla, Susie Issacs,
Nancy Todd Tyner, Evelyn Ng, Debbie Burkhead, and others. These women represent
some of the top talent in the land and online casino poker gambling industries.
The women participating in the podcasts and contributing to the content and
information provided through WomensPokerYak.com are some of the most
recognizable names in the industry. And although some of the women are not
necessarily professional land and online poker gamblers, they all bring a wealth
of knowledge to the table. |
