Noah Boeken (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈbukən]; born 6 January 1981) is a Dutch professional poker and Magic: The Gathering player.
In the 1997 Pro Tour Chicago, Boeken finished in 15th place, and later 32nd at Pro Tour Mainz. He went on to win the 2000 European Championship and $11,500.
After his early success in his Magic career, he started playing poker.
Like fellow Magic player David Williams, Boeken credits Marcel Lüske as his mentor.
Boeken's first major finish in the money was at the 2003 Master Classics of Poker, where he finished 4th in the €200 no limit hold'em event. 8 months later he played in the $10,000 no limit hold'em championship of Festa al Lago II in Las Vegas, Nevada where he again finished in the money.
In October 2004, both Boeken and Lüske made the final table of the European Poker Tour (EPT) event in London won by John Shipley. Boeken made a second EPT final table in January 2005 at the Scandinavian Open in Copenhagen where he defeated Ram Vaswani in the final heads-up confrontation.
Boeken attended the World Series of Poker (WSOP) in 2005 and finished in the money twice, including at the final table of the $2,500 limit hold'em event.
Boeken won the 2006 British Poker Open beating the likes of Gus Hansen and collecting 50,000 GBP.
