Angela Jordison enters the GRID, to discuss a sizzling hand she played against World Champion Greg “Fossilman” Raymer at the 2021 WSOP Senior’s Event.Angela raised in early position with ace-eight suited, and called a three-bet from Raymer on the button. When the flop came out beautifully, three-eight-ace with two clubs, Jordison check raised. They saw another eight on the turn, bringing in the club flush draw—and more importantly, giving Angela a full house. Now she just had to figure out how to get all of Raymer’s chips—and a fossil for the road.

Though Jordison is primarily a PLO live cash game player, she is also known for her live tournament success. She hails over $500,000 in live MTT earnings, including a six-figure score notched right after this interview, 3^rd place in WSOP Event #18 for a sweet 150K prize. She also pulled off a remarkable hat trick back in 2015, when she won three events in a row at her local Oregon casino, the Pendleton.

This podcast releases just as Angela and Jennifer are ready to team up in this summer’s WSOP tag team event, raising money for abortion access. They discuss why the issue is so important to both, and their plans to dominate the event. You can find the All-in For Abortion Access logo on buttons and T-shirts here. The logo uses the hand seven-three to commemorate the 1973 Roe vs. Wade landmark decision, now in jeopardy.
