POKER VT - Virtual Training with the Pros

Adam Junglen has been tearing up both the live and online poker scene for the last few years. He final tabled the opening event at WSOPE in September 2008 and then a week after turning 21 he took sixth at a major $10k event – The Caesar’s Palace Classic, for $148,000.

Adam was competitive even at a young age. In his early teens he was a top ranked “Magic the Gathering” player making over $10,000 in tournaments all over the United States. Adam was able to carry that competitiveness over to the poker world and become very successful.

Bursting onto the scene in July of 2007, he won the PokerStars Sunday Million, netting him almost $200,000. Then, shortly afterwards, in September, he finished in sixth place at the EPT Barcelona for more than $261,000.  Junglen has been on numerous TV-tables, including the final table of the EPT Barcelona, the final table of a HPT event, and World Series of Poker Europe. Adams biggest score to date was in the fall of 2009 where he chopped the FTOPS Main Event 3 handed for $290,000. Adam had two 5th place finishes at the 2011 World Series of Poker.

Adam is originally from South Korea where he was adopted very young. As a result of a birth defect and 20 surgeries Adam had to have his right leg amputated below the knee. “Without a doubt the most traumatic experience of my life, I’d give all my money for two legs.”

Adam currently splits his time between Ohio, Las Vegas and LA or “wherever the circuit takes me.”
