“It feels a little more like a party, a home game – everybody’s just making jokes, having fun, drinks are going around. “I think that definitely contributes to the overall feeling of just being relaxed,” Sleeth said of the Ladies Championship. The WPT Ladies Championship environment has worked out well for her thus far, and Sleeth will have a chance at a career-best result with a finish of fourth or better on Friday. “I’ve been taking a very long break from poker,” Sleeth said, “So it just feels fun again, which is really refreshing.” Over the last three months, however, Sleeth hasn’t released a video as she stepped back from the game entirely. She’s found success in the live poker streets as well, capturing a World Series of Poker Circuit ring in February 2019, among other prominent results. With over 30,000 followers on YouTube, Ashley Sleeth is often found battling it out in online tournaments and live streamed cash games.

She’s followed by Chris Read (2,425,000) and Lisa Costello (2,190,000) at the top of the chip counts.
