Default what do you think when a female gets moved to your table?

So I was sitting here watching some random Annie Duke "female poker" video and she has lots to say about how women should act at the poker table. It got me to thinking about how we all view females when they get moved to our table. For instance, say you are in the top 5% of a mtt and the lady has 2x average. Do you think she is decent or just some donk like you would think of a random older man with lots of chips? Also, what do you think if it is at the start of a mtt?

The third catergory of players Blueman overlooked is attractive younger women, who I look at like rich older looking dudes... They are going to suck and play like people with little or no experience but could bluff or play crazy or play weak but you just need to play pretty solid against them.

It goes in part with my theory that if you look like you dont need to know how to play, you wont be able to. Hot women (just like rich older men) dont ever have the desire or drive to put in the months and months of work it takes to be a world class poker player, so they wont be.

If you haven't heard of them they almost certainly suck.

If you have, most of them suck.

But then, i believe that about most male players as well.

FWIW, as a woman at the table, I usually find that most (guys) tend to under rate me as a table (which I like, because I can really take advantage of that).

I have real advantages at a table full of men, that I don't have when playing against my fellow gender (IE: A ladies Only Tourney).

I've also come across a few Horses rear ends at the poker table, just because I'm a woman and they resent me being there. (I had this happen to me recently at the Binions Classic back in June of this year, and it didn't help that the guy was drunk on his arse either)

However on the flip side, I also find that I'm quite cautious when another woman comes to the table, until I can find out what their playing skill is like.

One thing about women, is many tend to play very unpredictably, mostly because they are new to the game.

Moral of the story is boys, just because we (women) wear our gender on the inside instead of the outside, don't assume we don't know how to play. Because if you do, we'll end up with all your chips, in OUR chip stack. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
