Katie Lindsay has been a staple on the poker scene for well over a decade. While she was once an agent for players, she has become a professional and an ACR Ambassador in recent years, with seven-figures worth of tournament results to her name. On Sunday, Lindsay won the largest live title of her career, topping a field of 325 entries in the 2024 Moneymaker Tour Aruba $1,500 no-limit hold’em main event. Lindsay walked away with the massive trophy and a career-best payday of $102,915.

Prior to this win, Lindsay’s top recorded score was the $62,857 she secured as the 26th-place finisher in the 2022 Wynn Millions main event. This most recent triumph increased her career earnings to $1,166,138.

Lindsay’s husband, World Poker Tour champion and two-time bracelet winner Chris Moorman, took to social media to share his excitement about her victory.

Lindsay’s most prestigious win, prior to this triumph in the Caribbean, is her victory in a 2022 WSOP Circuit Online $215 buy-in event, which saw her earn $15,324 and her lone WSOPC ring. Her largest payday for a first-place finish had been a $50,145 windfall as the winner of a $600 buy-in event at the 2018 Venetian DeepStack Extravaganza IV.

This most recent win came with 480 Card Player Player of the Year points. This was Lindsay’s first POY-qualified score of 2024.
