werner : Welcome to Melbourne Australia.
anneta_15 : Thankyou, its nice to be back.
werner : How are you going in the main event ?.
anneta_15 : I'm just sitting above average, on day 3.
werner : How did the nick name of "anneta 15" come about ?.
anneta_15 : The reason why people started calling me "aneeta 15" is because I started playing poker at 15 yrs old.
werner : So when you won the WSOP, how old were you then?.
aneeta_15 : I was 19 yrs old.
werner : Did you ever feel like the underdog, considering no one knew you especially on the final table?.
anneta_15 : There probally were a few players thinking that, but what is important is playing your game.
werner : Can you ellaberate more on this?.
anneta_15 : What I mean by this is, its good to read a lot of books, you never can stop learning. But what is more important is to be yourself, have fun playing, that is very important, and not copy some pro player.
werner : Do you think a lot of players when they start out try and copy some pro player, say like Gus Hansen etc?.
anneta_15 : OH yes. That was until Gus said you need to find your own style. Once you find your own style you should never change it. It does not matter who your up againts. In time your style of play will work for you.
werner : Well it worked, you won the world series. !!
werner : Well thank you for taking time out. All the very best in the main event.
anneta_15 : Thank you. I hope I can take it out. lol.
