Bio
Rolf Slotboom
Being an author / columnist for the Dutch Poker Magazine, Gerthein was very serious & dedicated in his job as my editor-in-chief. Very courteous towards the columnists. At the same time, he is a more than decent writer of his own, with a wry, subtle sense of humour.
Pim Bouman
Gerthein Boersma is a sharp-witted, dedicated professional, who has a keen grasp of language and a commendable work ethic. I enjoyed working with him and look forward to doing so again in the future.
