My Journey

Hello, figured now is a better time than any, as I am off for summer break.  A little bit about myself:  I was born in Alaska and went to high school in Egypt.  Now I currently go to Virginia Tech and should be graduating this coming May!  I have been trying to keep a steady pace in poker while trying to graduate and keep a social life, but sometimes the balance is very tough.

I got my real start in poker in freshman year of university where I stumbled upon a 100NL live cash game in a shady area near my school.  It was a blast, first hand I sat down I flopped a boat and ended up +200 in the matter of an hour.  From what I remember of that experience was that I was terrible.  I picked up playing on carbon and deposited small amounts 50-100$...and began to crush the live games.  But I found myself absolutely getting killed online. I had no bank roll management and soon found myself down a few thousand dollars.  It was not all horrible as that was most of my profit from the live cash games, but I found myself in a funk and dedicted to patient, roll building.

Since the collapse of Carbon's tournament guarantees, I decided to move to Bovada and sell off pieces of myself.  I have done relatively well but it is hard to get a fluid grind on with school work and what not.  Currently I am back in Alaska, interning for the whole summer, and finding it hard to play any tournaments whatsoever..so I am mainly sticking to cash when I can.  I decided to get back into RIO so I could study, since I don't have the hours to play (4 hour difference from eastern).

I will try to update this every so often with beats, brags, and other things going on in my life.

I will start trying to stream some tournament play on TwitchTv @ http://www.twitch.tv/adamhendrix
