[color=black]Yes I think your right; girls don’t get the respect AT FIRST. We have to prove ourselves first then we gain the respect. Online I never let it known that I am female, only if it is at the end of a game and I’m doing really well, I will drop it in. Just to hurt their egos. [/color]

[color=black] I was playing in a live game lately with guys that I Knew but had never played poker with before.  They did not give me any respect as a poker player, reraising my raises with nothing, trying to scare me off. Didn’t work!! But by the end of the night I certainly had gained their respect and dented their ego's.  So just play game, and if you deserve it, you will gain respect.[/color]

[color=black]But hey, why would anyone be surprised at this, haven’t women always been striving to gain respect and equality in all aspects of life. What’s different about poker!!! [/color]

[color=black][color=black]And to Rob, maybe the reason that there is not many female pro poker players, is because it was predominately a male game. Women were not altogether accepted in the poker circuit, who was minding the kids for god’s sake!! I could go on.  But things are changing; give it another few years and who knows........[/color]
