Haralabos Voulgaris is from Winnipeg in Canada where he was born and raised. There is not a lot known about his childhood as he has been reluctant to share the details of his life publicly. What is known is that he attended the University of Manitoba in his home town where he got a degree in philosophy. He is also a playwright and is hoping to see one of his plays produced in the not too distant future. For now however Voulgaris is best known as a professional poker player.

The first introduction that Haralabos Voulgaris got to the world of gambling was when he was eighteen and he got into sports betting. He in fact became so successful at betting on NBA games that he did it professionally for several years. It was not until he started to see poker on television all the time that he started to get interested in the game. After teaching himself how to play and playing in a few cash games Voulgaris started to enter tournaments. It did not take him long to start having success.

The biggest successes that Haralabos Voulgaris has had have been in World Poker Tour events. He decided right at the start of his career that the best way to get good was to start playing with the best players in the world so he started entering WPT events almost right from the start. Although he has not yet won a WPT event he has had made it to a couple of finals tables and been a consistent money finisher. While not the biggest star in the game this has allowed him to accumulate well over a million dollars of winnings on the World Poker Tour.

Of course the World Poker Tour is not the only place to play in a poker tournament and Haralabos Voulgaris has started to play in a wider variety of events. This has allowed him to greatly increase his winnings as he has had considerable success playing in smaller tournaments. Nevertheless his main focus remains the World Poker Tour where he is hoping to achieve his goal and win an event. He does however have other goals outside of poker that may distract him from becoming a truly great poker player. In addition to the plays that he has written he is also working on becoming an elite level piano player.
