Evelyn "Evybabee" Ng

In Toronto, Evelyn Ng learned how to compete at an early age, as she began playing billiards for money at 14-years old. By the time she was 17, after graduating high school, she began dealing blackjack and poker, and she met Daniel Negreanu who became her friend and poker advisor. While he helped improve her game, he also introduced her to Las Vegas where she first realized that it was possible to make a career out of professional poker.

Soon after Evelyn's 21st birthday, she moved to Vegas where she continued to work as a dealer while she played cash games on the side and built a bankroll. In 2003, after being introduced to the tournament circuit, she entered and won a satellite for the World Poker Tour Ladies Night event. She took second place in the event but outlasted opponents such as Jennifer Harman, Annie Duke, and Kathy Liebert, thus firmly establishing herself as a formidable opponent in the poker world.

Evy continues to excel in tournaments, cashing in major events on a consistent basis. One of the most notable cashes was the 2005 WPT Borgata Poker Open where she placed 11th. She continues to improve her game through consistent play and intense study of the game, and her hope is to take down a well-deserved championship title in the near future. In the meantime, poker enthusiasts everywhere look forward to seeing her at the tables, especially as she perform.
