Roland de Wolfe
/2008-02-08/
- Nicknamed "The Sheep"
- The first player to win Championship titles on both the WPT and EPT
- 3rd place in the WPT Championship
Roland "The Sheep" de Wolfe plays online at Full Tilt Poker.
Roland de Wolfe chose an unusual road to becoming the big, bad poker player he is today. In his younger days, Roland spent much of his time hustling pool in bars - one-handed.
As Roland grew older, he still continued to play pool and snooker, but those games took a backseat to the regular paychecks provided in covering poker tournaments as a journalist. He soon rose in the publishing ranks to become the poker editor of a British gambling magazine, Inside Edge.
The lessons Roland learned covering poker soon translated into personal success at the tables when he began playing professionally just three years ago. He scored his first major win in the summer of 2005 when he claimed the World Poker Tour Grand Prix de Paris title, besting the previous year's winner, Juha Helpi.
Later in 2005, Roland cashed in the $1,000 No-Limit Hold 'em event at the World Series of Poker and in the $15,000 Main Event at the WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic.
In early 2006, he finished third at the $25,000 WPT World Championship, taking home more than $1 million. In June, Roland had two cashes at the WSOP, including a third-place finish in the $2,000 No-Limit Shootout. Most recently, Roland earned more than $691,000 by taking home first place at the European Poker Tour's Main Event in Dublin, Ireland and is now the only player to win championship events on both the WPT and the EPT.
When he's not playing in live tournaments or on FullTiltPoker.com, Roland enjoys grueling work outs at the gym.
