It would be nice if she wins it. She was up to 71M chips at one point, but 50M is still a good stack to work with.

A woman winning the main event would change the game

Could Leo be the next Chris Moneymaker? There are many great women poker players out there. I am surprised it has been so long since a woman made the final table at the Main Event. Is it strictly the numbers? What percentage of poker pros are women? In the absence of any hometown Canadian heroes to route for, I would like to see her win. It just might spark more participation by the "Fairer Sex".

Well according to google poker pros are 95% male... that's a bit of an edge😎

So excited to watch this final table! We have waited so long for another woman to make it to this point. There are many worthy players, but I am sending all my best wishes to Leo!

Congrats to Leo, wish her luck. Looking forward to keeping up with this FT because of her and the grinder.

Lady professional poker player from Spain is the first woman to make the final table in the WSOP main event since 1995. What a great achievement for her! I just wish it was still broadcast on ESPN so we can all watch it. I think is great for poker!

Liv Boeree also made the final table at the 2024 WSOP Paradise in the Bahamas and finished the tournament in 4th place. This was the largest female prize in poker history.

Cheering for her and hope she wins it's all. But if she doesn't win great accomplishment that will hopefully bring more women into playing poker. If she doesn't win I hope Grinder does.

Cheers!!!

I also support her!! 👊 She grows in decision-making 👏👏👏 Wonderful to see her at the final table 💥 When is that final table event: the 8th or the 9th?

 

[Highfish]

Best of luck for her.

Wishing her all the best and may she conquer

 

[Highfish]

I hope she wins.

The best female poker player 2025.

Out in 7th. I’m sad for her and for poker. I wanted to see how the game might have changed.

Congrats, Leo!

I was really hoping for a Margets vs Mizrachi heads up battle.

 

[hardongear]

Well dammit Leo didn't win. Congrats just the same she did amazing to get to 7th and make 1.5m. The Grinder has been just unstoppable.

Grinder is running absolutely insane wow. I was always wondering what makes him so good at live tournaments and I think now I know what his special ingredient to success is.
