I am also, incidentally, a lesbian, and a strong supporter of civil rights (LGBT and otherwise). I have since graduated from law school and also become the highest earning female poker player of all time, with more than $7 million in career earnings, and a bunch of tournament wins. I'm still not convinced poker as a career is fully healthy or meaningful, but I'm doing everything I can to make it that. That win catalyzed my signing with Pokerstars and my return to a career as a pro, this time as a tourney donkey rather than a cash game pro who dabbled in tournaments. While there, I played and won a few tournaments including the NAPT Mohegan Sun for $750,000. Though I had some early success, I struggled with the idea of making poker a long-term career as I wasn't convinced it was sustainable as a way of contributing to a healthy and meaningful life, so I went to law school in 2008. I somewhat infamously busted 4-bet shoving 52s and running into AA in a hand that Norman Chad referred to as a 'blowup of monumental proportions' or something along those lines. In 2006, I played my first couple of tournaments and made my first televised final table at the WSOP. I then learned about online poker and online poker forums, got serious about the game, and starting building my bankroll in cash games. I started playing poker about 9 years ago, just messing around with friends.
