Nancy Birnbaum (Ft. Lauderdale, FL)

Outside of Vanessa Russo and Lily Kiletto, Nancy Birnbaum (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) is the top female on the state of Florida's "All Time Money List" (and it should be mentioned that nor Russo or Kiletto have called Florida home for a while now).  With over $666,000 in career tournament earnings, Nancy is a veteran of the tournament scene, and always one of the more accomplished players in many of the fields she play in.

Birnbaum is already off to a strong start this flight, having doubled the 20,000 starting stack in the first few levels of the day.  Nancy did see some success in the $100,000 guarantee that was run last month, finishing in 64th place, and earning herself $679.  That was already Nancy's eleventh cash of the year, after finishing in the money in four different events during the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open.

Nancy headlines a surprisingly large group of ladies in today's field, including the likes of:

Carey Pickus

Nataliya Allard

Esther Foley

Susan Krowitz
