Annie gets called out again!
 
Loved the story of Annie giving the "high hat" routine to the dude that won the bracelet on the day before the final table. Time is proving it to be 'typical Annie'.

I'm sorry, but she is just plain pompous and cliquey and she deserves the flack she gets. Daniel N. once posted a list of about ten different stories about her and they were all pretty bad. Since then, the stories from other sources have begun to add up as well.


And please, no replies about "how many final tables you been at dude?". I'm not a 'hater' nor a sycophant. I'm just an observer, and I simply observe that Annie Duke thinks she's better than just about everyone else.

All you have to do is just look at her face the entire time that shes there, Just looks pissed. Then gets put all in and gets all pissy about it. She is a very good player, but I think very overated. IMHO

Since OOT has a ban on poker content, this should be noted here. Annie's bod was looking pretty good on that show.

how many final final tables have you been at?

just kidding....what was that all about? She looked like an evil, evil psycho.

I really don't understand why some people cannot appreciate what they have. For a lady who has over $2.5 million in tournament winnings in the past 15 months, and who gets to play poker for a living, she didn't look very happy.

Re: Annie gets called out again!
 
i like the way he took the piss out of her on the hand he took her out on. after they got it all in he's like "i don't kow what the odds are"
her: (waaaahhhh) its 3:2
him: oh, i knew youd know"
his tone was great.
long live the last laugh

Re: Annie gets called out again!
 
We college students are spoiled, but while she may have a nice body, her face betrays her age. And she wears either too much makeup, or too little. (IE if she wore more she'd be able to pull off the evil gothic poker champion, now it just looks sleazy.)

If it wasn't for the whole "poker players are treated worse than slaves we pay to pick the cotton" I'd be less harsh, but seriously, f--- Annie Duke.

Saying that she was rude to that guy is only one persons unsubstantiated side of the story. It shouldn't be stated on TV, unless Chad witness it. We don't know what happen or if anything happened. Maybe at some point she was rude to Chad and that’s why we heard the story. If the guy wants to say it himself that's OK, he's got the right, as long as you give her a chance to respond. Everybody just accepts that she did this and was at fault. That’s called character assassination.

Re: Annie gets called out again!
 
yeah, based on her friendly and cheerful demeanor at the final table, I am sure it is not true.

Re: Annie gets called out again!
 
Watching last night's broadcast, there was one hand were Annie checked by holding her cards in her hand and hitting the table with them (like a normal rapp rapp but with her cards in her hand). However, before she started checking, it looked to me like she moved the cards towards the pot, and if the other guy wanted to shoot angles as much as she does, might of had a case for her hand being declared folded. Does anyone know what i'm talking about and if it is even reasonably close to what i'm saying? I wasn't paying full attention and don't have Tivo so i couldn't go back and look at it or anything.

I think it would be pretty amusing if someone tried to call her out on something like that.

I guess Howard's pretty pissed at DN as well. He sent a nasty open letter to him on another site which could also probably be found on his site.

That reminded me of one of DN's tales. She was in a hand with another pro heads up, he re-raised her big, she folded and asked what he had. He said 'Aces' or something to that effect (or affect, I can't say I know). He then mucked his cards and Annie picked them out of the muck, peeked at them and said "just checkin".....

And I'm pretty sure DN was at the table.

Stories like that...

In Positively Fifth Street, Jim McManus describes her cheating in this fashion at a satellite (pp180-181 in my copy). It was Tony Ma's hand that she illegally retrieved from the muck. By McManus' account, Dan Alspach and Noel Furlong were also at the table. He doesn't mention DN (and it seems like he would). Perhaps Duke has used this particular cheating method more than once.

That's probably my mistake but there you go. That's the story I was referring to.

Agreed. I saw Annie many times when I was in Vegas over the two months of the WSOP and she is really not that hot. If she was not famous for playing poker you would not even notice her walk down the street (especially in Vegas). She would just be another middle aged mother of 4.

Didn't she really overreact in last year's main event to Brett Jungblut for having his cards in the muck or something? She's out of control and definitely overrated.

i've tried my best to search for DN's articles about her incidents, but have had no luck. what is the name of the article? searching for "annie duke" yields the wrong results on dan's website. does anyone have the link?

i enjoyed reading that... DN carries himself very well, don't always agree with him, but he always defends his side well.


(and this made me think much less of Annie.. but i still think Lederer is the man)

It's really sad that after all these years people are still reading Daniel's gibberish for the first time and losing respect for Annie.

It someone wrote it down it MUST BE TRUE!

Re: Annie gets called out again!
 
Well, what else do i have go on?

This is the evidencee i have about Annie Duke:

A) She looks like a cute housewife, and i like her long sleeve shirt under the tshirt look

B) A guy that i kind of respect, presented a decent amount of evidence that she's kind of bitchy.

---

It's not like i said i hate the woman and would never change my mind, just think less of her, because based on what i've been shown, it doesn't sound good.

Don't see what could be wrong with that.

I am really surprised that DN wrote stuff like that. It is very rare to see such a high profile player to share his true feelings about another player.

It was A LONG TIME AGO.

1. Being a high profile player didn't mean then what it means now.
2. He wasn't that high profile of a player back then.
