Loni Harwood (born c. 1990) is a professional poker player who won a World Series of Poker bracelet at the 2013 World Series of Poker. She won two World Series of Poker Circuit events in 2012.
Background
Harwood earned a finance degree in 2012 from the University at Albany, State University of New York.[1] Upon graduation, she moved to Florida and began playing poker, quickly discovering the World Series of Poker Circuit.[1] Her initial poker training came from watching her father, Joel Harwood,[2] play online.[1]
Career highlights
Harwood won two World Series of Poker circuit rings in 2012: 2012 WSOP Circuit - Palm Beach Kennel Club 500-entrant $300 + $45 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em Event 2 for $30,994,[3] and 2012 WSOP Circuit - Harrah's New Orleans 345-entrant $355 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em Event 4 for $23,090.[4] The former was her first ever WSOP Circuit event.[2] She earned her first bracelet by winning the 2,541-entrant $1,500 No Limit Hold'em 2013 World Series of Poker Event 60 and its $609,017 prize.[1] Her victory at the 2013 World Series of Poker was historical: it made her the second woman (Cyndy Violette, 2005)[5] to make three final tables in a single World Series and the first to win a bracelet in the same year she did so; it moved her into third place in the 2013 World Series of Poker Player of the Year race; and it moved her into eighth place on the all-time female World Series earnings list.[1] Additionally, her $609,017 is the highest payout to a woman in any Las Vegas event in World Series of Poker history (second in overall World Series of Poker Europe history to Annette Obrestad's £1,000,000 from the 2007 World Series of Poker Europe main event) and her $874,698 total at the 2013 World Series of Poker is the highest female total in a single World Series.[5]
On July 31, 2015, Harwood won the 2015 WSOP U.S. National Championship for her second career bracelet.[6]
