Annie Duke - "Let them think that you are stupid"

Tags: annie duke, poker, women.
Posted on 23 July 2009 by "T".

According to the American poker pro, Annie Duke, women are wasting too much time trying to prove that they are really good poker players. Instead she thinks that women should let everyone think they can't play poker, and take advantage of it.

That men underestimate women in all types of games and sports is nothing new. Annie Duke thinks that women should let men continue believing that they can't play poker and are stupid. By doing this, women will have a much greater advantage against men than if they are trying to show that they are really good poker players.

-"Let them think that you are stupid. Women are spending too much time trying to prove how good they are. I personally hope that men underestimate me at the poker table"

- "When I see a women playing poker, I assume that she's not good. But as soon as she puts the first poker chip on the table I usually change my mind"

Rise of the women... How long do you think it will be before a woman wins the main event?
I know thats probably not a good question as i do not know the percentage of women entred.
But what does this article really say about men?.......... That we are all as stupid. Why do people presume men are the more agressive sex? and we all know that you need controlled agression rather than balls out fighting agression. so why arnt women better than men?........Coz they want to play poker thats all there no better than the rest of us.

Ok im sorry Big Smile ... but you rarely find videos where there are women involved if you search for "poker hand played perfectly" on youtube. You only find this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rf_XcLTLBY ... Big Smile Big Smile (just ignore what they say at the end)
 B1gfoot23/07/2009 18:37:51 GMT
Well i must admit I do think women have an ege on men, obviousle a lot less play, but those I come across certinly play no worse then men.
In my books everyone is a good player untill proven outherwise.

lol np Davoodoo and yes I do agree on some women just play "stupidly" and they really should not be there. But on the other hand so do many men. As B1gfoot said "untill proven otherwise" Smile

IMO Daniel Nagreanu is a BIATCH and a whinny one at that Big Smile Can't stand him or his "thoughts and opinions" or his play for that matter. And don't even get me started on the way he dresses.

The truth is that the best poker names in the world are men, but there are a lot of good female players too. As it is oin football it is a men`s sport! But she was right sometimes some players underestimate women!
 T3ddyKGB24/07/2009 16:46:21 GMT
not quite sure if its that good. if your taken serious as poker player then you can allow your self to do some things you actually wouldnt do. i find reputation is very important.
otherwise it also has its use if they think your an idiot, but in the long run i find having a good reputation is way better.
of course we underestimate them, 5000years long they didnt leave the kitchen now they claim the biggest manager jobs
physicaly we are simply better. not sayin a women cant be better as a man, but when it comes best vs best then we bang you Tongue

man thats the smartest thing this woman has ever said.hahahahha i never underestermate how smart a woman poker player is all poker players are the same.one game,no genders,no races.
 Fakiry25/07/2009 21:39:04 GMT
Annie Duke is right. If women's oponents cant believe they have skill, they will give their chips easier to them. Thats the way things work with everybody. If everybody knows you are a pro, they will only confront you with very good hands, but if you are unknown and look have a dumb look, they will try with worst hands.
 dunotra25/07/2009 21:50:09 GMT
My mistress is stupid but she allways get's money from me Blink

So who is stupid..... Me or Her Question
 Gottfriedx25/07/2009 22:24:00 GMT
How can women not be good in poker? Even a grandma can play do it. Oh, and just keep on playing girls. You're hotter and better than most guys who rage because their almighty KK lost vs a AA donk
 SuperNoob26/07/2009 18:22:47 GMT
Yes i agree women aren't bad at poker and every player wants to be underestimated so that the opponents makes mistake and they can take advantage of it. but when u play this advantage doesn't last long
 BlackPanther26/07/2009 18:51:50 GMT
Yap i have to agree with Annie and i mean its kind of obvious why should u not take and advantage by that.
 GeneYuss27/07/2009 09:47:17 GMT
lol at the youtube video. I thought it was real at first.

I think men are born to compete and have instinct..But I don't know, its 21st century now..

I would like to see a Female UFC Smile

 Predobar22/10/2009 15:50:32 GMT
just more man have poker as their profession. Otherwise I think women are just as able as man to win. This is not physiognomy related job/sport/whatever.
