Credited with being the first woman to ever deal at the World Series of Poker, Margie has had a long and storied career in the poker industry dating to the early 1970s. Originally from Montana, she played and dealt poker in Billings, before she relocated to Las Vegas and secured a position dealing at the renowned Golden Nugget.
Back in 1977, famous rodeo cowboy and poker player Byron “Cowboy” Wolford suggested Margie deal at the upcoming World Series of Poker at Binion’s Gambling Hall. Although she was told no woman had ever dealt the tournament or had even applied to deal before, she wasn't gonna take ‘no' for an answer and went to talk to owner Benny Binion. The two hit it off immediately after she mentioned her Montana roots, and the rest is history…
Margie's sting dealing at the 1977 World Series of Poker was so successful that she was invited to deal the final table in front of a televised audience – further opening the door for women in the poker industry across the nation.
Margie was inducted into the Women in Poker Hall of Fame in 2011. You can connect with her on Facebook.
