For two decades, Annie was one of the top poker players in the world, winning more than $4 million in tournament poker. During her career, Annie won a World Series of Poker bracelet and is the only woman to have won the World Series of Poker Tournament of Champions and the NBC National Poker Heads-Up Championship.

Since retiring from professional poker in 2012, Annie has become an author of multiple bestsellers, corporate speaker, and consultant in the decision-making space. She is also a Special Partner focused on Decision Science at First Round Capital Partners, a seed stage venture fund.

Annie is the co-founder of The Alliance for Decision Education, a non-profit whose mission is to improve lives by empowering students through decision skills education. She is a member of the National Board of After-School All-Stars and the Board of Directors of the Franklin Institute and serves on the board of the Renew Democracy Initiative.

Annie’s latest book, Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away, was released October 4, 2022 from Portfolio, a Penguin Random House imprint. Her previous book, Thinking in Bets, is a national bestseller.

She's taught decision-making and critical thinking skills to tens of thousands of Wharton MBAs, founders at First Round, and executives at private workshops–and she's looking forward to teaching you.
