Teresa Damasauskas, who is 57 and from Omaha, has been a TV/radio host and producer for a local public-access station for 17 years. She got turned on to poker, and especially no-limit hold’em, after watching WSOP action on television six years ago with her husband. “I thought any two cards could win,” she said. She tried Omaha, but found it “too scary,” and remained true to the game she loved, Texas hold’em.
