Youngest WSOP Bracelet Winner Returns | PokerNews Podcast #952

Annette Obrestad, famously the youngest-ever World Series of Poker bracelet winner, is making a long-awaited return to the felt after nearly a decade away from the game. The Norwegian pro, who stunned the poker world by winning the 2007 WSOP Europe Main Event at just 18, spoke candidly about her decision to step away, citing burnout and a desire to explore life beyond poker.

Now back at WSOP Europe, Obrestad says she’s rediscovered her competitive spark and is eager to test herself once again against elite fields. During her time away, she focused on a variety of creative pursuits and personal interests, giving her a fresh perspective that she believes will benefit her game as she re-enters the spotlight.
