World Series of Poker bracelets aren't designed for women. Neiman Marcus makes a daintier chain for the winner of the Ladies Tournament, but in the open events the men are expected to take home the jewelry. Only a handful of women have ever won even one of the heavier bracelets. Jennifer Harman has two, the $5000 Deuce to Seven event in 2000, followed by the $5000 Limit hold 'Em event in 2002.

She's also been close a couple of times in the World Poker Tour, with her best result to date coming in December 2004 when finishing fourth in the $15,000 Five Diamond World Poker Classic in Las Vegas.
And as impressive a distinction as that is, it's even more amazing when you consider that Jennifer made her reputation as a cash game player. Show up at the Bellagio on any given evening and look for the $4000-8000 game. It's a veritable Who's Who of Poker. Doyle Brunson and Chip Reese, Lyle Berman and Johnny Chan. You might miss her at first glance, hidden behind a pile of chips that possibly weigh more than she does, but everyone in the game is aware of Jennifer Harman's presence at the table.

Away from the table, Jennifer is equally impressive. Recently roped into making a contribution for Doyle Brunson's sequel to what many believe to be the greatest poker book, Super System, Jennifer has added her chapter to Super System 2 on Limit Hold 'Em.

Her media appearances include ESPN, ABC Primetime, Ellen Degeneres, Discovery Channel, Travel Channel, MPR Radio, and others. And Sports Illustrated has described her as the most feared poker player in the world.
Recently married, Jen likes to stay home playing with her dogs, go to movies, and hang out with friends.
