Did you know that Annette_15 has a poker blog?

I don't know if I've mentioned it here before but Annette_15 (who I think is now 19) has a blog. She is sponsored by betfair so the blog is hosted there and is full of great gems. I've written here about some of here amazing feats before. There was a post about how she played the 180 peep SNG on Stars without looking at her hole cards. There was also a post about how she won the $100K guarantee on Stars by beating out 19,999 players.

Anyway, I read her blog pretty regularly and I thought you might all enjoy it as well. I have added it on the right, in the 'blogs I read' section and here's the direct link.

You will find some great tournament summaries as well as strategy posts. Some of them are very simple rules to follow that will hopefully improve your game. And if you're not UIGEA crippled here in the US, you can also get some info on the freerolls she hosts at betfair.

Let me know what you think.

UPDATE: Oh yeah, I almost forgot. She won the first ever WSOPE ME in London last year and broke a bunch of records. She also was runner-up in the EPT Irish Open. She has some wicked poker chops.

I looked up Annette's stats on Sharkscope. Specifically, her sit-n-go stats because that's what i'm playing now. It shows the number of times she placed in each position. Guess what position she placed in the most? 4th place. I think because she attacks the bubble with such aggression is my guess. First place was next then, 6th. 7, 8, and 9 were very low because i guess she plays extremely tight until 6 people are left. Then, she steps up the aggression again when down to 4. Don't know if this bores you to death but, it gives me some more strategy on how to play sit-n-gos. Adios!

Mike, Having just finished 4th in my latest SnG this stat cheered me up. I've heard her talk before about needing to have a sizable stack when the money approaches. I think we can all learn from Annette.
