**Leonor Margets Perez** (born August 10, 1983) is a Spanish professional poker player from [Barcelona, Spain](/source/Barcelona%2C_Spain). In [2025](/source/2025_World_Series_of_Poker), she became the first woman in 30 years to make the final table of the World Series of Poker Main Event. She also won a WSOP bracelet in [2021](/source/2021_World_Series_of_Poker).[1]

Margets graduated from the [University of Roehampton](/source/University_of_Roehampton) in [London](/source/London) and has a master's degree in Communication Business Management. Before her poker career, she worked at [IMG](/source/IMG_(company)).[2]

Margets finished in 27th place in the [2009 WSOP](/source/2009_World_Series_of_Poker) Main Event. At the [2018 WSOP](/source/2018_World_Series_of_Poker), she finished runner-up in the $1,000 Double Stack No-Limit Hold'em event. Margets won her first [WSOP bracelet](/source/WSOP_bracelet) in the $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Closer in 2021, defeating a field of 1,903 to earn $376,000; as of 2025, she remains the last woman to win an open-field event at the WSOP in [Las Vegas, Nevada](/source/Las_Vegas%2C_Nevada).[3]

In 2025, Margets made it through a field of 9,735 to make the WSOP Main Event final table. She was only the second woman in WSOP history to make the final table, and the first since [Barbara Enright](/source/Barbara_Enright) in [1995](/source/1995_World_Series_of_Poker). Beginning in fifth place on the leaderboard, she was eventually eliminated in seventh place when her pair of aces lost to Kenny Hallaert's rivered flush. She earned $1,500,000, the largest score by a woman in the Main Event.[4][5]
