Lavinna
Zhang is a retired accountant, the mother of two,
and was only 26 years old and when she found herself
in heads up with Isabelle
Mercier, battling it out for a $25,000 seat
at the WPT Main Event. With four years in America
after leaving her native China, Zhang proved to
the poker world that she would not be intimidated.
She and “No Mercy”
Mercier took turns pushing around the rest of
the table, including the winner of the first Ladies
Night, Clonie
Gowen. In the end Zhang lost the seat, taking
second place in the event, yet proving all the
while that she was a solid player capable of taking
her opponents by surprise.
