Canada's Leading Lady is in the Field
PokerStars player and two-time WSOP bracelet winner, Kristen Bicknell, has entered the field.
Bicknell recently slid into the top ten on Canada's GPI leaderboard after recent deep runs on her home turf and is the first woman to do so.
At the end of 2016, Bicknell final-tabled the WPT Deepstacks Championship Main Event, coming in third for just over $130,000. That ended up being a great lead into 2017, as she has gotten off to a blazing start with four final tables and a win, spread out between Australia, Panama and her hometown in Niagara Falls, Canada at WPT Fallsview.
Another goal of Bicknell's was to lock up an infamous 'spadie' trophy and she did just that after taking down Event #7 $1,100 Win the Button here in Panama.
Look for Bicknell to continue to make waves as she enters her second year of playing live events after transitioning from the world of online poker.
