    WILD ALICE

    One of the most memorable wild women of the old west, Poker Alice moved to Colorado from England in the 1860s and eventually married a mining engineer who played cards at local gambling parlors. Alice accompanied her husband, learned the games and began playing for a living after her spouse died. She earned the name Poker Alice and quite a reputation to boot. By the end of the gold rush, Alice had made over $5,000 (an enormous amount for those days) and moved to New York to retire. In her lifetime, the wild woman shot two men, killing one, and eventually opened an establishment which was a combination of a card room and a brothel.

    Cool Fact: Despite her wild ways, Alice refused to play or deal cards on Sunday, and chose to teach Sunday school lessons to her fellow ladies.

    "Women can't play poker" is a sexist rant from a bygone era.

    I can say that women are also a good poker player, they can also deceive men by their soft nature. Men may think they are weak but beware, they can also be a wild and dangerous beast.

    Women can't play poker, because when they do the men are too busy drooling to pay any attention to what is going on.
