What a fantastic story to read and it must have been a very emotional time when she realised she had won the whole thing. To become the first mother son combination to win bracelets is some feat indeed
that's really very cool .... and the mother and son won the bracelets ..... a real poker dynasty .... only my father failed .... here if even my father won the bracelet then it would be a full house ... .full house bracelets ..... interesting news ..... maybe the father has not said his word .... maybe

I can not believe that. A 83-year old woman won an tournament with 2191 players. I have not heard about this woman. Farhintaj Bonyadi is regular at live tournaments or she learned this game from her boy because she did a sensational thing for her age. Congratulations to this lady for his performance.

Well done for her winning the tournament at her age. But looking at the picture on this thread, i have asked myself more than once. Is this the right picture? Does she look to you for someone being 83 years old?
