In Deadwood, she met her second husband whose last name was Tubbs. At first he and Alice were rivals, in competition over the gaming trade until Alice saved his life. A customer pulled a gun on him and she shot the customer in arm. She and Warren Tubbs married and for a time Alice gave up gambling and ranched with her husband. In 1910 Tubbs died of pneumonia.

Alice was unable to take his body out to bury until the blizzard was over. She had to hock her wedding ring to pay the burial expenses. Once more she found herself broke and without a man, so she went back to dealing cards. She moved to Sturgis, South Dakota, and resumed gambling, playing mostly poker. In Sturgis, she ran a poker establishment. She was also a madam. Alice had a religious streak, and always closed her establishment on Sundays.
