1 - WHO ARE YOU?

Adam Sharples.

2 - POST A PICTURE OF YOURSELF OR A LINK TO ONE (APAT OR OTHER)



3 - WHERE DO YOU COME FROM?

Ellesmere Port, Cheshire.

4 - TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF?

I"m 22, unemployed, and don"t drink alcohol. Smoke far too much though! 26. Married to Julie. Still unemployed. Still don"t drink. Managed to give up smoking.

5 - WHAT IS YOUR POKER BACKGROUND?

Dabbled in play money on Poker Room when I was 18, but stopped when I went to uni as you couldn"t connect! After uni, moved to Oxford, and the Poker Project started up there, so started playing there and gravitated to cash games, tourneys and online. Now I grind it out in the low limits, making enough to pay for a decent holiday every couple of months.

6 - WHAT IS YOUR PLAYING STYLE?

Depends what mood I"m in, and what the game is like. People think I"m a nit. I like to prove them wrong...

7 - WHO IS YOUR FAVOURITE POKER PLAYER AND WHY?

Pro: Negreanu, for the way he plays, not just how he plays.
Amateur: I"d have to say my best mate, Danni. Probably cause I got her into ther game and now she kicks my **** all the time.
Anybody who can play with class.

8 - WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE ONLINE POKER SITE AND WHAT IS YOUR POKER ID THERE?

Pokerstars: sharplea

9 - WHAT ARE YOUR POKER ACHIEVEMENTS?

Online: Freeroll wins, starting off with 30 quid at .25/.50 in cash and turning it into over 300 in a 4 week period, 4th in a tourney for $408.65.
Live: 7th in the Poker Project main event. Sadly, the payout scheme sucked so I only took home £120!

Qualifying for the £1500 HU comp at the Vic in December "07 from a freeroll.
Making a day 2 of APAT.

11 - HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT APAT?

From the Blonde forum.

12 -WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT APAT TOURNAMENTS, STANDARD OF PLAY AND STRUCTURE?

Having never played, I have no opinion. Froim reading it though, it looks very good :D Awesome.

13 - HAVE YOU PLAYED AT AN APAT LIVE EVENT AND IF SO, WHAT WAS MOST MEMORABLE ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE?

See question 12. Now, quite easily my favourite tour.

14 - WHAT ARE YOUR MAIN INTERESTS OUTSIDE OF POKER?

I play cricket a lot mainly, and love nothing more than chilling out, listening to weird music.
