Safiya Umerova Hunts for Bracelet Number Two

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Safiya Umerova has taken her seat at the same table as Kelly Winterhalter and Paul Sokoloff.

Umerova won her first World Series of Poker bracelet last summer after defeating Niall Farrell heads-up in the $1,500 Shootout. It was her first trip to the Series, after frequenting the poker circuit for a while. She looks to win another and make this the summer of second bracelets after Upeshka De Silva and Benjamin Zamani have already locked up their second-career bracelets.

Umerova enters the field with several more notable female players, including Jessica Dawley, Julie Cornelius, Lizzy Harrison, and Kelly Winterhalter, just to name a few.
