Annie Duke
Current Residence: Los Angeles
Birth Place: New Hampshire, USA
Born in: 1964
Summary:
Annie Duke is truly a stand out in the top money list of world class poker professionals. Before taking up poker seriously as a profession at the urging of her brother Howard Lederer, Duke was heavily involved in the academic world. She earned a double major in English and psychology at Columbia University, and left just one month shy of defending her PhD to pursue her poker dreams.
This turned out to be the right move for Annie Duke and the poker world, as she has gone on to become not only the top money woman pro player in the world but also an outspoken critic of the division of the genders in poker tournaments. She believes that poker is a game on which men and women compete with an equal footing, and all events should reflect this. She won her World Series of Poker bracelet in 2006 at the Omaha Hi Lo event.
