Hi CCers,
I spent the better part of a month working on compiling this important article.
Why Don’t More Women Play Poker? Leading Poker Ladies Unite for Change
The goal was to get some of the strongest female voices in poker to speak publicly about what sort of progress they'd like to see as far as more women playing and participating in poker.
CardsChat news writer Jennifer Newell was among the participants, as were Poker Hall of Famer Linda Johnson, women's all-time tournament money leader Vanessa Selbst, poker TV presenter Kara Scott, among others.
Thus far, the response to the piece has been overwhelmingly positive. I've decided to post it here as well to help try and spread the word further. There are lots of players out there who need to read this and forums like CardsChat are "where these players can be reached".
I hope the ensuing discussion leads to positive change, and of course I'm happy to hear your thoughts on the piece if you have any. If you like it, you're certainly welcome to share via your social channels and help spread this important message.
If we want to see poker boom again, perhaps the engine behind it will be women-powered.
Enjoy,
Robbie
