Where Did All the Women Go?

Clearly poker is not popular among the ladies of the Baltic. Yesterday, only three of the 181 players were female. All three, Annette Obrestad, Vanessa Selbst, and Nelli Nufer, were eliminated before the end of the day. Today, of the 239 entrants, exactly two are women. And both are Team PokerStars Pros. Katja Thater is currently on 40,000 while Fatima Moreira de Melo has slipped to 25,000. That means women made up 1.2 percent of the Main Event field and only one woman dared enter without a major poker sponsorship deal. Not very impressive, ladies.
