To win the spot on the Poker Hall of Fame’s wall, Liebert will have to collect the most votes of the ten candidates. She picked up the game fast and pretty soon poker’s gain was business and finance’s loss. When she moved to Colorado for the skiing, she found that the casino near her preferred blue, red, and black runs laid on $5-$5 limit games. She was then raised in Long Island, NY where she got a degree in business and finance followed by a job in business and finance. Liebert was born in 1967 in Nashville, TN.

Liebert is also already a member of the Women in Poker Hall of Fame. She has a WSOP bracelet to her name, as well as three WPT Main Event final tables, and in 19 she ran deep in the WSOP Main Event, coming 17th both times. In 2002 she won the first-ever limit hold’em event to have a prize pool greater than $1 million. She has $6.7 million in live tournament cashes, earned over a period of 28 years of play. Liebert’s claim to entry into this hallowed hall is her long history at the top of the game. Kathy Liebert - one of this year’s first-time nominees for the Hall - certainly meets those criteria.

Candidates for the Poker Hall of Fame must meet all of the following criteria if they are players: they must have stood the test of time, gained the respect of their peers, and have played against the top players, at high stakes, and with consistent skill.
