The Selection Process: Meet the Judges
Choosing the winners for this special contest is no easy task, so I’ve enlisted the help of three very special judges—my wife Miriam, my daughter Abby, and my father Josef—each of whom will select one finalist from among the entries.
Each judge will pick one finalist based on the creativity, heart, and impact of the nominations. Finalists will be announced on Monday November 11th via our X account @PokerLifeMedia.
I will then Tweet out a poll, lasting 2 days, whereby followers will vote for their favorite finalist. A winner will be crowned upon conclusion of the poll on November 13th.
The winning pair will be off to London for an unforgettable experience at the Women’s Winter Festival, competing alongside some of the best female players in the world. Not only will you have the chance to play, but you’ll be part of an event that’s dedicated to celebrating women in poker in an atmosphere of camaraderie and competition.
Why Enter the “My Partner in Poker” Contest?
This contest is more than just a trip to a poker festival—it’s about shining a spotlight on the women who make the game special. Poker is a game of skill, strategy, and passion, and over the years, women have made their mark in incredible ways. Whether the woman you’re nominating is a fierce competitor, an inspiring player, or simply someone who loves the game and deserves this opportunity, we want to hear about her.
We also want to celebrate the partnerships that form at the poker table. Whether it’s a spouse, friend, or someone you’ve shared memorable poker experiences with, the NLH 50/50 Freezeout will give you the chance to team up and take on the competition together.
So, what are you waiting for? Get tweeting, share your stories, and nominate your #MyPartnerInPoker for this once-in-a-lifetime chance to attend the PokerStars Women’s Winter Festival in London.
