Liz Lieu, the Poker Diva, is a true poker superstar. The lovely and fashionable lady is one of the hardest working players on the tournament circuit. Lieu’s first tournament win came in 2006 when she took down the $1,000 NLHE contest at the LA Poker Classic. In 2007, she repeated the feat, winning more than $148,000 for the effort. She also took part in the PartyPoker Premiere League, Women’s World Open and World Open III.
Having made the move Across the Pond to London where she is a spokesperson for Chilipoker, the lovely Lieu found time to cash in two events at the World Series of Poker this summer as well.
However, her best showing in our opinion was at the APPT Macau event. Not only did Lieu make the final table of the Main Event, finishing seventh but she also was one of the last people sitting in the $15,000 High Roller Event. She took eighth place in that event, proving her stamina, skill and ability to make high level decisions with little to no sleep.
We are in awe of this lovely lady and know she’ll win a major in 2008. We can just feel it!
