A total of 54 women were nominated by fans for enshrinement in the Women in Poker Hall of Fame and to be members of the 2022 inductee class.
However, that list is now down to seven worthy female poker players and personalities all of whom have met the criteria for inclusion on the final vote for a place in the Hall of Fame.
But with no new names admitted to the Women in Poker Hall of Fame since 2018, there’s no guarantee that any of the final seven will earn a place alongside their revered peers that are already a member of that exclusive club.
Those nominated initially were asked to have met a set of three four criteria:
BET247
Bet365 Review  ⊕ Min Deposit: £5  ⊕ Expiry: 30 days  ⊕ Min Odds: 1/5 (1.20)Â
TOP30
William Hill Review » ⊕ Min £10/€10/$10 stake   ⊕ Expiry: 30 days  ⊕ Min Odds: 1.5
NEW BONUS
GG Poker Review » ⊕ Min Deposit: £10  ⊕ Limited period  ⊕ $1 for ever $ in Rake
The public vote is now open and today is the final day you can cast your vote, so you’ll have to be quick to get your vote in.
Voting is open to the public via a form you can access from this link, and you have a total of ten votes that you can cast, handing as many of those votes to each nominee as you see fit.
You can give one of the nominees all ten votes if you feel they are deserving of them, or you can spread your votes around as many of the seven nominees as you like.
Once voting closes at midnight PST tonight, the votes will be collated and combined with votes from member and industry cotes in order to determine which of the nominees will earn their place in the Hall of Fame.
The seven women that have earned the right to go to ballot for inclusion in the WiPHoF include a number of current and former poker professionals, as well as personalities from within the poker industry itself.
The full list of the nominees, together with information about each, is shown below:
Now retired from most professional poker events, Liv Boeree earned around $3.9m from her skills at the table during her career, which includes winning one WSOP bracelet. She is a former PokerStars professional.
Since leaving professional poker, Boeree has become a committed philanthropist and has championed science, particularly through her social media channels.
The wife of Alex Foxen, Kristen Foxen is an accomplished poker player in her own right. She has earned over $5.5m in live earnings and still competes actively in poker tournaments around the world. Kristen is also a former PokerStars Supernova Elite player.
Foxen won the WPT Choctaw Main Event in early 2022 picking up $135,000 in winnings and has been the GPI Female Poker Player of the Year winner on three occasions, as well as winning three WSOP bracelets.
Hael is the Vice President of Global Tour Management and has spent a dozen years working with the WPT and has also won the 2018 GPI Industry Person of the Year award.
Former professional turned Poker historian, Terry King first came to prominence back in 1978 when she landed a bracelet when winning the WSOP Ladies’ Event. She followed that up a few years later by being the first female dealer during the WSOP Main Event.
Kara Scott came to prominence back in 2009 when she became only the second woman in history to cash in back-to-back WSOP Main Events. The talented poker player has picked up around $664,795 in live earnings in her career.
She is also a familiar face from her work as a Poker presenter where she has been the host of a number of shows including NBC Heads Up, Poker After Dark and High Stakes Poker.
A former PokerStars Team Pro member, Selbst is the highest earning woman in poker history, earning around $11.9 million in earnings and claiming three World Series of Poker Bracelet and two World Poker Tour Final Table spots to her name.
Selbst claimed that she has now mostly retired from poker.
The Hollywood actress, famous for her roles in films such as Liar Liar and Child’s Play as well as providing the voice for Bonnie Swanson in the TV Show Family Guy, Tilly is also an accomplished poker player who regularly competes at the High Stakes tables and who has won over $1 million in live earnings, as well as a WSOP Bracelet in the Ladies event in 2005.
Tilly has been seen recently playing at the high stakes tables on Hustler Casino Live.
As we mentioned earlier in the article, there are no guarantees when it comes to women being admitted onto what is a very short list of Hall of Fame members as the last woman admitted onto the list was back in 2018.
In fact, just 20 women currently have made it into the WIPHOF and they are listed below:
If any of the seven women shortlisted for induction into the Hall of Fame land enough votes to earn their place then this announcement will take place on Monday 14th November 2022.
Then any player that makes it into the Hall of Fame will be officially enshrined as a member at the Women In Poker Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony & Celebration, which will take place at the PokerGo Studios on December 14th 2022 from 10am.
Tickets for the induction ceremony are limited and can be purchased at the www.WiPHoF.com site.
Check back later in November when we will bring you all the news on which of the seven women have made it into the hallowed Hall of Fame!
