Jennifer HarmanWorld-renowned professional poker player Jennifer Harman has really made a name for herself in the world of professional poker. Jennifer Harman is known as one of the best poker players in the world and has more than one accomplishment to prove it, and many consider her the best female player worldwide.Jennifer Harman was born in Reno, Nevada-an excellent home for learning the game of poker. She started playing the game at eight years of age after watching her father and his friends play at home. However, her eventual decision to become a professional poker player caused some initial estrangement with her dad, which has since been resolved. Since her early days as a pre-adolescent poker player, Jennifer Harman has come a long way in a world traditionally dominated by men. She began playing poker professionally when she was about 21, playing mostly for fun before that and paying the bills as a cocktail waitress.

In 2000 she won her first bracelet at the No-Limit Deuce-to-Seven Lowball event-a game she had no experience playing. Two years later Jennifer Harman won her second WSOP bracelet in the $5K-Limit Hold 'Em event. Jennifer Harman took a break from poker in 2004 for an entire year in order to have a second kidney transplant and to rest and recover.

She also participated in a group of high-stakes poker players called "The Corporation," who played billionaire businessman Andy Beal for up to $200,000. Jennifer Harman is married to fellow poker player Marco Traniello and previously dated players Todd Brunson and Howard Lederer. Jennifer Harman considers herself a perfectionist in many areas of life, including poker, but has said she realizes the game of poker can never be played perfectly. However, she has made it her goal to learn most of the games of poker instead of specializing in just one.
