Adam Schoenfeld was born in Brooklyn, New York and was known for his lofty goals and strong determination to meet those goals. Poker was merely a hobby during his college years, where he became familiar with the game but concentrated primarily on his education. After school, he held numerous jobs " reporter for the Associated Press, investor, and vice-president of an internet analysis firm called Jupiter Communications.
In 2001, poker again caught his attention with the increase of its popularity, and Adam wasn't one to back away from the challenge. He educated himself on the finer points of the game, quit his job with the internet company, and set out to conquer poker, and he chronicled his progress in a humorous column in CardPlayer Magazine. Almost immediately, he began doing well in tournaments and building an impressive poker resume.
Adam has cashed in tournaments as he traveled around the world, but his biggest cash at that time came in Atlantic City in 2001 at the U.S. Poker Championship where he came in third place in the $7,500 no-limit hold'em main event for over $68,000. As his skill level improved, however, he moved up to bigger tournaments, and in 2004, he found his place on the World Poker Tour. He made the final table of the L.A. Poker Classic that year and took home more than $170,000 for his efforts. He also went deep in two WPT events in 2004, and he hopes to make another final table again soon
