Ben Rolle

Benjamin Rolle was born in Germany. He came to poker after university, turning down a promising path in football that he'd shown real talent for as a teenager. Moving quickly from micro stakes to high-stakes MTTs, Ben became one of the most respected online regulars around.

His career numbers are hard to ignore — as of 2026, his online MTT winnings have topped $40 million. Rolle is a fixture at the game's biggest events, including the GGMillion High Roller, where he's reached multiple final tables and taken down the title more than once. In 2024 alone, he pocketed roughly $4 million net just from GGPoker.
The high point of his career came at the 2025 WSOP Online Main Event on GGPoker: Ben outlasted 5,961 entrants to win $3,900,707 and his first WSOP bracelet. He arrived at the final table as chip leader and never really looked back, closing it out heads-up against Anatoly Zlotnikov.

His live tournament results are more modest by comparison — around $125,000 in official cashes, since Ben's focus has always leaned heavily toward online play. Even so, his reputation offline is spotless; plenty of people consider bencb the modern-day blueprint for a professional — disciplined, tilt-proof, sharp on ICM, and still generous with what he knows.

Beyond the felt, Ben is one of the more influential coaches and content creators in the industry. He founded Raise Your Edge, a respected training academy built around tournament poker. More than 8,500 students have gone through his Tournament Masterclass despite its steep $1,300 price tag. He was previously a PokerStars ambassador before joining CoinPoker in 2024.

At 36, in 2026, Ben Rolle is still competing at the top level while continuing to build his online presence. He's become something of a case study in what talent, hard work, and a systematic approach can achieve in an era dominated by solvers and brutal competition. For a lot of younger players coming up, he's become a genuine source of inspiration.
