Aubrey Williams didn't enter the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Ladies Championship to make a political statement, she entered because she says she belongs there.

Williams, a transgender woman, entered today's Day 4 tied with the chip lead. And while her table mates greeted her with friendly smiles and open arms, her deep run created a stir in some anti-transgender social media circles.

But Williams was unfazed, telling PokerNews on break that she doesn't monitor social media and that no one that she's played with has had an issue with her. And when asked why she played in the Ladies Championship, her answer was simple.

"I'm a woman, so I play in the women's event," Williams told PokerNews. "It's not like making a statement or anything. I'm just playing a tournament."
