Roland de Wolfe Rolls European Poker Tour Dublin
He's the First Player to Win an EPT and WPT Event

Roland de Wolfe of the United Kingdom outlasted 388 players to win the European Poker Tour event in Dublin this weekend. He won €554,000 and is the first player to win a World Poker Tour event and an EPT event.

The final table consisted of all Europeans, including five Brits, two Frenchmen, and players from Ireland and Sweden. The total prize pool generated was €1,847,750.

The €5,000 buy-in event was held at the Regency Hotel in Dublin, and was the fourth EPT event to take place in its third season. Events have already taken place in Barcelona, Spain; London; and Baden, Austria. Three more events will take place to complete the third EPT season.

De Wolfe has won more than $1.7 million on the tournament trail, including two cashes at this year’s World Series of Poker, a third-place finish at this year’s Five Star World Poker Classic, and a victory at the WPT's 2005 Grand Prix de Paris, which was good for $600,898.

De Wolfe knocked out seven of the final eight players. He seemed to get a lot of good cards at the final table, and sent players packing while holding A-J, A-Q, 8-8, and trip fives.

The top nine players and their payouts follow:

* Rolland de Wolfe, U.K., €554,300
* David Tavernier, France, €314,120
* William Thorson, Sweden, €184,780
