The last woman to reach the final table at the Main Event was Barbara Enright, who placed fifth in 1995.
Leonore “Leo” Margets is making history in the world of poker.
This week, she became the first woman in 30 years to reach the final table at the World Series of Poker Main Event in Las Vegas.
“It’s so unreal, it is a dream,” Margets told PokerGO sideline reporter Jeff Platt.
She added, "How lucky I am to live this!”
The Spanish poker pro was ultimately eliminated Tuesday, finishing in seventh place. She will still take home $1.5 million in prize money.

This is impressive. Very few women have the upper body strength to hold a hand of cards for that long.
I wonder if this gal is trans.
Uh oh - Scripps News has really crossed the line, really stepped in it now.
A “woman?”
What the heck is that?
C’mon, Man!
My question too.
And she went bust
I'd go bust for $1.5 million any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
Now if it was strip poker...
Nah but she kissed a girl after making it to the final table, quelle horreur lofl.
The best part was WSOP kicking out-of-control manic gobshite Will Kassouf to the curb.
I wondered too, but “Leo” looks to be an authentic female from her photos
Better not be tax free
She played well. The other player got lucky to beat her. But that is poker.
There is no DEI in poker. Anybody who gets to the top earned it.
Looks like a woman to me.
A genuine female? How’s the plumbing down there?

Which is why it’s such a great game.
Well, but What Would Laz Poker with?
(Note strategically placed label “Men to Poker” on tactically significant prominences.)
the sign said: “Liquor in the front, poker in the rear.”
Don’t care. So what. Its actualky more surprising they all aren’t women, being better liars and bluffers. I mean paternity fraud, fake crying, faking liking you, manipulation, gaslighting, misdirection, deflection, two-facing you, they all should be women at the final poker table.
