An Interview with JwlD1

Q. How long have you been playing poker?

Back in high school we used to play bourre (a cajun card game) played all forms of poker on and off through high school & college then basically quit until I became pregnant with Josie--when online poker hit!

Q. How did you come to Pokerchix.com?

I was playing at Pokerhost (all the freerolls I could find) & I came across a freeroll tourny for women so I entered it. Next thing I know-I won it and the prize was entry to the first Pokerchix Championship in Oceanside, CA. I had never played B&M so I made a couple of trips over to Louisiana to the casino & entered a couple of tournies to get rid of the nervous jitters. Get to Oceanside & play a satellite there just to get some more practice & finished 2nd in it. Went on to place 7th in the 1st Chix Championship. Anyway I joined Pokerchix after that win at PH & all the gals made me feel right at home.

Q. Do you play online, B&M or both?

Mostly online since I have 2 little ones, but I try to sneak off every once in a blue moon to play at the Horseshoe in Bossier City, LA.

Q. What is your favorite game?

Online I love playing Omaha Hi/lowTournies-NLHE

Q. Do You have a preference which gender to play against?

Men are easier to beat-lol!!!

Q. Have you played in the LIPS Tour?

Yes-well the 1st championship.

Q. What was your most memorable win?

Ummm-lol-at that 1st LIPS championship-raising with PP 10's to have Lupe (PokerChick) move all in with a PPAces. Well I made the call & ended making a set to take Lupe out. She told me then to take those chips and make the money so thats what I did. If it wasnt for Lupe & the LIPS tourny, I would not have the confidence I have now to play tourneys both live & online. I have learned so much from these fabulous ladies & proudly call them not only friends but sisters/family.
