Recent Interview
by A_Junglen on 02/18/08
Just a quick update. I recently did an interview for pokertips.org. Here's the link
If you haven't noticed by now, I'm a pretty brutally honest guy when it comes to my life, and posting these blogs. When they asked what would've happened to me if poker hadn't worked out for me or if I hadn't found it, my answer was "I'd probably be dead."
As over dramatic as it may seem, I have fairly strong convictions that, if I hadn't found poker, that would've been the case.
Poker came into my life just at the right time. As most of you know by now, I was 16 and begun undergoing a series of operations that were torturous, mentally and physically. I feel as though without poker I could have easily became a statistic.
I received a lot of criticism from a blog I wrote awhile ago, "How I got into poker part 3.5." I really just want to say that most of that entry was copy-pasted from my logs back from when I was 17. It really was the worst time of my life and I'm somehow still with us today.

No reason you have to explain yourself. Poker came at a time in your life that was crucial and helped you get through, that's it.Dude, consider yourself lucky that poker arrived when it did, The hell with those who cannot understand.

Most people hate to hear the truth. We are glad you found your calling and poker might be a stepping stone to something even greater for you. The world works in strange ways. Keep it up Adam.02/19/08
