Cherish Andrews is an American professional poker player from Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, who has risen to become one of the most respected and dangerous competitors in the game. Known for her incredible grind and competitive fire, Andrews dominated the circuit to win the 2022 Global Poker Index (GPI) Female Player of the Year title. With a career that spans over a decade, she has transitioned from a local East Coast player to a global star who is just as comfortable in high stakes mixed games as she is in massive No Limit Hold’em fields.
Career Earnings & Biggest Results
According to The Hendon Mob, Cherish Andrews has won over $4.2 million in live tournament earnings. Her biggest career score came in April 2025 at the WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown, where she finished 4th in the $25,500 High Roller for $408,265.
Andrews is a major title winner with a trophy case that includes a World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet. She won her bracelet in 2022 during the WSOP Online $1,000 No Limit Hold’em Championship, playing under her well known screen name “Dumptruck69.” In addition to her bracelet, she is a force on the WSOP Circuit, having won four gold rings. Her most recent ring came in late 2024 at Harrah’s Cherokee, where she took down the $1,100 No Limit Hold’em event for $108,971. Whether she is playing at the Borgata in Atlantic City or under the lights of the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas, she is a constant threat to reach the final table.
Biography & Poker Background
Born and raised in Pennsylvania, Cherish Andrews got her start in poker at the young age of 14. She learned the game by watching her older brothers play 50 cent home games with their friends. After saving up enough money to enter a $25 tournament and winning it for $700, she was hooked on the competition. Once she turned 21, she began making frequent trips to the Borgata in New Jersey to play cash games and tournaments. While she once considered a career as a nurse for babies or animals, her natural talent for cards led her to the professional poker path. Since going fully pro in 2021, she has become a fixture in the poker world and one of the most consistent winners on the tour.
Play Style & Strategy
Andrews is known for an aggressive and fearless style of play. Earlier in her career, she had a reputation for being a “calling station” who refused to fold, but she has since refined her game into a much more balanced and calculated approach. She is highly observant and relies on her ability to read the energy of the table to decide when to pull off a big bluff or go for maximum value. While she specializes in No Limit Hold’em, she has also become an expert in Pot Limit Omaha, often seeking out mixed game events at the WSOP. Her mental toughness was on full display during her 2022 run for Player of the Year, where she stayed focused through a grueling schedule to clinch the title in the final weeks of the season.
