Teresa Griffith is playing poker for the first time in years. She stopped playing for a while and has returned in search of what she called the '"new normal."
Griffith is from Eureka Springs, AR.
Her husband passed away a few years ago and she says that is why she's started playing poker again.
Griffith says she forgot how much she enjoyed it and, if it were up to her, she'd play all the time.
When she's not playing she's selling things on Amazon.
This is her second bullet in the RGPS main event.
She won her first seat in a satellite, so she's playing for a discount at the moment. She's off to a good start today with almost three times starting stack.
