World Series of Poker Bracelet Winner and High-Stake Player Lisa Hamilton

She is a beautiful lady and got richer by $195,390. There were over 1000 players in the event #17. Lisa is 37 years old but she looks way younger. The last battle for the prize did not last long. Just a bit less than four hours.

Some people say that it was really easy to stay on top, as the game became short-handed. Well, there was another thousand of the players too. She had over 70% of the chips while playing with other four players.

Before the WSOP she was only a cash player, but now she has got much cash, a bracelet and the open doors to any kind of the poker event.

Going high stake

Now she is a high-stake player. It seems strange that she did not play any live tournament before WSOP. She grew up in Honolulu, Hawaii. But in 2005 she moved to Las Vegas.

She says that her pokerstars online screen name is omgfml.

She appeared on a serious stage not long time ago. In June 2009 she participated in her first WSOP, which she successfully won. Later that year she participated in 2009 Doyle Brunson Five Diamond World Poker Classic in Las Vegas, where she took 11th place and won almost $5,000.

At the beginning of 2010 Lisa took part in PokerStars Caribbean Adventure in Paradise Island, where she played No Limit Hold'em and took 5th place and made $133,770.

Hamilton proceeded and in March she took 11th place in the 2010 Wynn Classic in Las Vegas and won a bit over $2,000.

What concerns her present achievements, she participated in the 41st World Series of Poker (WSOP) 2010 in Las Vegas, which was 46 times less successful than the previous one. In the $5,000 No Limit Holld'em she took 46th place and took home $14,517.

Her total winnings as of midsummer of 2010 are $350,796.
