Annie Duke, Jennifer "Jennicide" Leigh, Alex "The Insider" Outhred, Karina Jett, and former FBI agent and non-verbal tells specialist Joe Navarro were the instructors. Participants who attended the two-day academy were treated to live hand demonstrations, in-depth seminar, and interactive workshops.
The women were then given the chance to use what they had learned at the academy to compete for seats into the ladies event. The following 10 women won their spot into the tournament:
Stacy Kopacz - Hopkinsville, Kentucky
Tracy Yochim - Middletown, New Jersey
Cari Jewett - Boise, Idaho
Ellen Troncin - Antioch, California
Gladys Landegger - Tarzana, California
Stephanie James - Honolulu, Hawaii
Susie Posnock - Oak Park, Illinois
Robin Slade - Wheaton, Illinois
Lisa Torres - Fort Gratiot, Michigan
Antoinette Septer - Bensalem, Pennsylvania
Stacy Kopacz and Susie Posnock are no strangers to poker but appreciate the academy and are both excited to compete in the event.
"I have been to the WSOP academy before as well as Joe Navarro's seminars. It is so different learning in person than from a book or television," Kopacz said. "And Annie Duke is amazing!"
"I've played in pretty large events before and been very successful but I'm just really excited to use what I've learned in the ladies event," said Posnock.
