I never thought she was a good poker player. Couldn't understand all the accolades from the other top pros. You watch her on TV and she seems tight, not particularly inventive.

But I just finish Craig's book, The professor, the banker and the suicide king and came away impressed by how she was able to work her way up to the top poker levels, going bust several times on the way up. She played Beal pretty aggressively heads-up (50,000-100,000 blinds) and did well against him.
