Absolute Poker's Liv Boeree, the site?s UK spokesperson, finished first among a field of 53 players in the Ladbrokes European Ladies Championship last weekend.
"I'm utterly over the moon about winning the European Ladies Championships,? said Liv Boeree. ?It was a fantastic tournament with a great sense of camaraderie and a really tough final table that I enjoyed playing from start to finish. This is also a great boost to my confidence going into the World Series of Poker* which is drawing ever closer."
The live poker tournament, held on May 3rd and 4th in London, featured some of the best female poker players in Europe including Annette Obrestad, the winner of the WSOPE Main Event. For her efforts, Liv Boeree took home a commemorative trophy and $30,000 in cash.
Absolute Poker signed Liv Boeree in February, 2008, a former astrophysics student and aspiring 23-year-old pro poker player, to represent the online poker site in the UK market.
