Roland de Wolfe
Roland de Wolfe was born in London, England on November 30, 1979. He took a different route into poker than most poker players, as he didn’t go straight into poker or come in after being a dealer. Instead, Roland started playing poker after he had spent some time as a journalist covering poker tournaments. He realized he was a good poker player when he decided to enter a poker tournament and found himself winning it after making it through two very tough poker opponents in the final three. Since then, Roland has been a professional poker player.
