Who is mer brit

PokerStars has a knack for picking some of the hottest women in poker in both senses of the word, sometimes to join their stable of pros, including the likes of Vanessa Rousso, Vanessa Selbst, and Liv Boeree in recent years. In , Brit got her start playing, of all things, limit cash games, full ring. The next two years saw Brit begin to make a name for herself in the online poker realm, notching big cashes in some of the most prestigious events the PS circuit has to offer.

This made her one of the top online tournament players in the world, ranking in the top in each of the last 2 years, according to Official Poker Rankings. She has a twitter account and even has a poker blog up that seemingly focuses little on poker and more on her life and her hobbies outside of poker, including being an avid Georgia Bulldogs fan and a semi-professional photographer.

So, what are we supposed to think about the rookie PS pro? Everything we talk about is pretty much nonpoker related, I don't do so well with "poker talk. Jeez, I have no idea what people do and don't know about me. I am absolutely obsessed with photography and adore traveling. Recently, my newest hobby is diving, which could become super time-consuming for me since it combines my traveling and photography. Saying I'm avid about it is an understatement. I'm always trying new things though, so I'm sure I'll add something else in the mix soon!

What's going to change in your life and in your poker career now that you're part of Team Online Pro? Well, I get to be part of a team for my favorite site, so that's a huge bonus to me, bringing even more positivity into my poker. I love the company, and my teammates, so I can't think of a better work environment for myself!

Hopefully it will also encourage other woman to give poker a chance. I am definitely looking forward to where things go from here!
