Frode Alfredsen

Frode Alfredsen is a professional poker player from Haugesund, Norway. He gained attention during the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, where he was part of a four-player Haugesund contingent that advanced from Day 1B. Alfredsen expressed confidence early on, declaring that the Main Event title "would go to Haugesund."

Alfredsen started Day 1B strong, briefly holding the chip lead and ending the day in seventh place overall with 221,200 chips. He described his play as solid, mentioning a "monster bluff" that worked well. By Day 3, he was one of four remaining Norwegians in the tournament, though with a short stack of 14 big blinds. He reported having been between 30-50 big blinds throughout the day but lost two critical flips, leaving him near the bubble with hopes of cashing.

• 2022 Tallinn Summer Showdown Main Event – 12th place out of 285 players, earning €4,250.
• 2019 Norwegian Championships Turbo – 26th place out of 531 players, earning €1,400.

Alfredsen's approach is consistent with many Norwegian players, emphasizing mathematical reasoning and strategic discipline. He favors a tight-aggressive (TAG) style, focusing on calculated risks and long-term profitability. His ability to maintain composure during high-stakes situations was evident in his WSOP run, where he noted that his pulse never raced despite the pressure.

While still building his resume, Alfredsen represents the growing poker community in Haugesund, Norway. His deep run in the 2024 WSOP Main Event highlighted his potential on the international stage, and he remains a player to watch in European tournaments.
