Tournament Notes:

  • This was the largest ladies-only poker tournament in poker history, with 1,286 players. The previous record was last year’s Ladies World Poker Championship, with 1,128 entries.
  • One of the entrants was Margie Heintz. Thirty years ago, she made poker history. Heintz was the first female dealer in World Series of Poker history. She dealt at the 1977 tournament, and sat in the box at the final table when Doyle Brunson won his second gold bracelet.
  • Ten years ago, Susie Isaacs won the Ladies World Poker Championship for the second consecutive year. She made a strong run for a third win, but ended up going out in 35-th place.
  • The defending champion in this event was Mary Jones. She also finished high in-the-money, going out in 16th place.
  • Play at the final table will be carried at the official WSOP website: www.worldseriesofpoker.com
