Vanessa Selbst Gives Mohegan Sun Field the Shak - Wins Title For Second Straight Year
Last year, Vanessa Selbst took down the NAPT Main Event at
Mohegan Sun for $750,000. This kicked off a strong 2010 that
resulted in $2. 6 million in winnings and Selbst climbing to
fourth on the Women's All-Time Money list. Enter the 2011 NAPT Mohegan Sun final table and a sign by a
fan conveyed the mood:
"Every year, the same damned thing.

Top 10 Moments in Poker for 2010 - Part 1
Since we are entering the final week of 2010, it is time for
me to be a lemming and do my year in review posts like every
other poker blogger and writer in the poker media. Â However, you all know I love to put my own opinion on
this, so over the next couple of days, I will give you MY
Top 10 Poker Moments of 2010. *#10 - Annie Duke Wins NBC National Heads-Up Championship*

Annie Duke does not play the same schedule as many other
pros due to her family. Â As such, she really has to try
and take advantage of the live events she plays in.

2010 Women in Poker Hall of Fame Class Announced
The Women in Poker Hall of Fame announced their 2010 class
last week and, as I figured, my two picks were inducted into
the Hall along with someone else I never heard of. Jennifer Harman was to me an obvious choice due to the fact
that she is clearly the best all around female player on the
planet. She is the only woman to consistently play at the
high limits of Bobby's Room year in and year out and is the
only woman in history to have 2 open WSOP bracelets. Kathy Liebert is the all-time women's money winner and
clearly the best female NL Holdem tournament player on the
planet.

Welcome to Bizarro World
Phil Hellmuth is a cash game genius, T. J. Clouiter wins
consistently at craps, and Kathy Liebert is the top pro on
Full Tilt Poker. Â After my last few days of playing
online, I am convinced that the prior statements are indeed
true as I think I have officially moved into bizarro world.

Top 10 Women in Poker
I figured that I would make a top 10 female list as well,
but containing the top 10 women that can actually play poker
as opposed to the top 10 that guys wish they could play
with. (Stats pulled from Hendon Mob. )
#10 - Barbara Enright - $1. 344 Million
I personally know Barbara and can tell you she is one of the
classiest ladies you will ever play with at the tables.
