Poker Career

 

Poker Career

In 1977, Fisher started as a Dealer at Foxy's Firehouse in Las Vegas and the sad part is that the Firehouse was grazed to the ground 20 years ago.

Fisher got actively involved in poker when she happened to be at one of the WPT Events. Luckily, she was one of those few people who knew and had knowledge about poker. Initially, the organizers wanted her help only with the flop cam, but later they asked her to help with the statistics also.  She was the one who devised the system for doing the whole thing and so was good in keeping immaculate records of the table. The organizers were thrilled and when they realized the importance of the work Fisher was doing, they created a profile for her.

As a statistician, Fisher has lots of work to do contrary to what many people believe. Fisher goes about writing every action that takes place at the table starting right from who raises, who folds, what the exposed cards are to, and almost anything that occurs on the table worth writing down. The interesting thing is that the ever patient Fisher performs this activity at every taping.

Other Interests

When Fisher is not actively involved in collecting statistics at WPT, she is busy directing cruises for Card Player Cruises. She writes for CardPlayer magazine, and helps in directing tournaments. Very soon, she is going be a live studio announcer for the Professional Poker Tour.

Fisher is an active member of the poker discussion group. The discussion group has been formed to meet regularly in order to help the members improve their poker skills. She is also a member of Poker Player's Alliance. The link is http://pokerplayersalliance.org and the group has been formed to encourage all poker players to join it.

Her ambition is to work towards world peace, be happy, and healthy. She wishes that people she loves and cares about should also have the same things in their life. Her favorite place is her hometown, Seattle and likes to travel to places, which are green and sunny.
