Online poker platform CoinPoker has added another big name to its list of sponsored pros with the addition of Germany’s Benjamin Rolle.
Playing under screennames including ‘Bencb789’, Rolle has forged an impressive reputation online, and is reputed to have accumulated online winnings totalling over $35M. This includes victory in what was, at the time, the most expensive online tournament ever held: the $102K buy-in World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) Super High Roller at PokerStars in 2016. Rolle’s victory over a final table that featured the likes of Fedor Holz, Isaac Haxton, Mikita Badziakouski and Igor Kurganov netted a career-high score of $1,172,461.
An online specialist, Rolle has also cashed multiple times in various WSOP and EPT live events, with his best result to date coming in Barcelona in 2017 when he finished 3rd in a side event for €38K.
While Sit & Go tournaments have provided much of Rolle’s winnings since making his start online in 2008, he has notched up plenty of other big online MTT results including a recent $651K+ payday in the WSOP Online Main Event, where he finished in 8th place.
Elite player, elite coach
A former member of Team PokerStars Pro, Rolle is a noted poker coach through his Raise Your Edge training platform, offering high level guidance for players wishing to take their game to the next level. He is also no stranger to streaming, regularly sharing his insights on live-streams while playing for high stakes in major tournaments including the WSOP Online Main Event, GGMillion$ and PokerStars WCOOP events.
Now that Rolle’s joined the CoinPoker crew we expect to see more streams playing at his new online home, including possibly the upcoming Cash Game World Championship, which runs through December.
Rolle joins a roster of CoinPoker partners and ambassadors including Patrick Leonard, Olga Iermolcheva, Charlie Carrel, Mario Mosböck, Bobby James and Fernando ‘JNANDEZ’ Habegger.
