Wow, what a great achievement for her. I didn't look for her poker history, but is there any possibility that she started playing poker because of her longtime boyfriend, the leader of the all-time money Argentinian list? I'm sure poker was always present on their lives, and she did very well in starting to bet on this activity.
Congratulations to Maria Constanza Lampropulos on winning the 2018 PCA Main Event. This tournament is one of the biggest live tourneys held, and it's a great achievement of which almost every poker player dreaming of. It seems that she is now the best woman in Poker after her 2 huge wins during the last year.

I couldn't believe when i woke up this morning and saw her name as the champion.
I'm very surprised no one said anything about her constant coughing and touching all the cards after basically spitting all over her hands every hand. That was one of the grossest displays i had to watch for hours.
Good on Maria for winning but i would've let her win just not to listen or watch he any longer.
But hey she's a millionaire now in a much better spot than myself.

I think this poker player Maria Constanza Lampropulos he learned a lot about poker before playing in these live tournaments. It is the second huge main event for this women and is very beautiful. This proves that it is very good to learn and then win a lot of money. Congratulations for this player Maria.

I guess that in the near future we might see that she wears a pokerstars bagde on her , as we know that a lot of female pokerstars pros have left the building ... Anyway congratz and let's hope that it's not the last tourney she takes down !
big congrats to her,.. what a nice price to win ...it would be soooo cool to win such a huge amount only for playing poker.. My biggest win was 2 k and that was already a great feeling... its a huge amount for me thats for sure... Respect to her to get first place in a pro tournament
LIKEIT27, was this yours win in the online or live tournament? For me, I have never played live tournaments except some penny home games. It would be nice to play in a live tournament in a big casino someday. Even If I would not win, I'm sure that it must be a great feeling just to take part at it .

I've just watched the replays of the final table and I suspect if Maria has been suffering from a chronic respiratory disease. It was the spring of last year when I first noticed her relentlessly coughing and her symptoms don't seem to have faded. And if I were her friend I would tell her to cough into her upper sleeve, not her hands.

Many congratulations to these anonymous poker players who become known winning major poker tournaments. I would like to see many unknown players as they make money in this poker shark world. These poker rooms need to make more satellite tournaments for major live tournaments.
