Heather Alcorn might not be a familiar name, but she should be a familiar face to poker players who play at the WSOP.
She won her seat in the final event of the season the Jack and Jill tournament that finished Sunday night. Her partner was Aria Poker Operations Manager Sean McCormack, who was unable to win the Poker After Dark seat and therefore didn't register for the satellite.
Alcorn live in Ozark, MO and has been dealing for eight years. She has two "wonderful" boys.
Is there anyone you would want to play against on Poker After Dark?
Anybody I can beat.
She declined to name anyone specifically.
