Alexander Wolfgang is better known to his small army of TikTok followers as @wolfgangpoker.  From his first taste of poker (winning a flip in a friend’s basement in Chicago) to traveling the cash game circuit and sharing his exploits with his followers, the 29-year-old has made the game a way of life. 

His start in the world of content creation was a unique one: a viral video of him out and about in LA dressed as Justin Bieber gave him both work as Bieber’s body double and a taste of the fun and interactivity of video making.  He never looked back, combining his creativity with his keen interest in poker.  “It’s cool to motivate people to get better at poker or make videos,” he says, adding mischievously, “I also enjoy chirping and needling people at the table – and the connections you make.”
