Unknown lady makes her name at the Bellagio

A previously unheard of poker player called Anna Wroblewski has won the latest preliminary tournament in the WPT World Championships, knocking out some of the world’s best-known tournament players along the way.


The best known of Wroblewski’s victims were Peter Feldman and Erick E-Dog Lindgren. E-Dog fell in eighth place after Wroblewski moved all-in with A-K on the Kc-9d-2c flop; Lindgren called with Jc-7c but missed his flush draw. Feldman capitulated in fourth place, unluckily flopping two pair with Q-T on a K-Q-T board when Wroblewski held K-Q.

 

It was not all such plain sailing for Wroblewski however, and she started her heads-up battle with Jonathan Dull as a 3-1 underdog in the chip count. The scores were soon levelled soon however, when, once again, she flopped a better two pair than her opponent.

 

It was a tough battle from there on in, and it took over an hour for the tie to be decided. In the end Wroblewski wrapped it up when she flopped a monster draw with 9h-8h and the board showing Th-7s-4h. Jonathan Dull had Ts-3c and both players got their chips in the middle. The 5h on the turn sealed the win for Wroblewski, who walked away with $337,395. Jonathan Dull took $192,640 for second place.
