Meet Isabelle “No Mercy” Mercier, a professional poker player from Victoriaville Quebec who ranks 12th amongst female players in the world. As though that’s not exciting enough, she’s about to appear in a film with Burt Reynolds, and she’s Jian Ghomeshi’s guest on Sounds Like Canada...She is currently taking part in the Poker World Series in Las Vegas (June 26- Aug. 10/06), and spoke to Jian via telephone from there. (From cbc.ca Program Guide for July 20/06) |
And she's also a lawyer? Yes, although she walked out of the firm where she did her practicum about 15 minutes after qualifying, according to the interview, Isabelle is qualified to practise law in Quebec, which unlike the rest of the country, is governed by a civil code.
Isabelle's advice to players thinking of going pro: Practise and improve your game at Internet poker sites.
And speaking of Thursday mornings, at 10:45 a.m., visit Dead Dog in the City for coffee and a taste of Tom King's irreverent First Nations humor.
