Bio: Kiran splits his time between studying at Oxford in the UK and his hometown outside Philly. A massive sports fan, when he’s not playing degenerate poker, he’s engaged in degenerate sports betting. Lastly, if he goes all in, theres a 50% chance he has 72.
Alain Rossier
Hometown: Oxford, England
Major: Mathematics
Year: PhD, 2023
Bio: In his free time, Alain likes playing various sports as he grew up in the Alps. But what he loves the most is facing a river shove, going on a rant with a heavy French accent, and eventually folding the second nuts or calling with J high. He usually justifies it with “running trash” and that his decision was +ev.
Ioannis Stamoulis
Hometown: Sofades, Greece
Major: Computer Science, Mathematics
Year: 2023
Bio: You will usually see Ioannis complaining about the bad beat he took last week, despite having the “best hand”. When he is not busted, you will usually find him catching bluffs(calling every single bet on the river with 10 high).
Jonathan Tam
Hometown: Hong Kong
Major: Mathematics
Year: PhD, 2023
Bio: On a normal day, you will find Jonathan on the felt talking absolute trash and making dad jokes to tilt his opponents. When facing a shove, he typically goes into the tank for several minutes. Rather than thinking about the hand, he just sits and sadistically enjoys the villain suffering through the silent tension in a feeble attempt to maintain their poker faces.
Richard Zhou
Hometown: Freising, Germany
Major: Biochemistry
Year: PhD, 2024
Bio: If you ever wondered how a German-Aussie accent sounds like, that’s how Richard speaks. If he isn’t talking about his malaria research, he probably will go all-in with top pair on the river.
