Meet The Maria Poker Ambassador Team

Maria Poker has the pleasure of introducing The Maria Poker Ambassador Team. They currently have four women representing Maria Poker and their countries at Live and online poker events throughout Europe.

	Paula Chicharro, Spanish Maria Poker Ambassador “I can actually say that I’m in love with poker and my aim is to get to play at a big tournament, and why not, get the first place! At the moment I’m satisfied learning a bit from each of my opponents and I’m looking forward to improving my game and strategy skills on the daily basis”
	Evely, Estonian Maria Poker Ambassador “Of course I would love to win some tournament in the future, why not put myself to test at the EPT in a couple of years. But this is not the reason why I play; I just love the beauty of the game!”
	Oanh, Netherlands Maria Poker Ambassador ‘’I think it is a challenge to prove that women can play poker as well and maybe even better than men. To win a bracelet on the WSOP is definitely one of my biggest dreams.'' Click here to read Oanh's blog.
	Denise Rombouts, German Maria Poker Ambassador ‘’I investigated in the Internet and found Maria Poker, a poker side for girls; that’s just perfect! I think more women should play poker because we can simply see through guys much better than the other way around and believe me, it’s not too difficult, really:)’
