We would like to say he will be missed, but in all reality he was never really there in the first place. Over 5 seasons Adam has made 28 events out of a possible 50 which means he only showed up 56% of the time.<\/p>\n<p>Even with the low average let\u2019s take a look at the highs and lows of his career<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Highs<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Well there really is only one and that would be when he was crowned champ in season 4. With a career high of 7 events entered, Adam beat out Dan L for the championship by 2 points. Adam never finished lower than 9<sup>th<\/sup> as was at the final table 6 other times and had 13 knock outs that year.<\/li>\n<li>Another high would be the event at Darryl and Jeff\u2019s where Pete and Adam were knocked out early. Pete calls his wife for a ride and Adam then decided to get drunk and play cash games for another 2 hours while they waited. Rumour is that Adam lost in the cash games multiple times and kept chasing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Lows<\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Adam was a familiar face at the bottom of the barrel in points (due to not showing up). He actually was dead last the year following the Championship. Many believe that the \u201cfluke\u201d win caused Adam to stop showing up as he didn\u2019t want to hear it from Roos about being lucky.<\/li>\n<li>Adam once downed a 5 hour energy drink at the beginning of a tournament at Smaller\u2019s and then went out 47 minutes later. This caused Adam to drive home at hyper speed to masturbate and yell into his pillow for the next 5 hours.<\/li>\n<li>Let\u2019s not forget the time he decided to play the guitar after being knocked out and decided to play the acoustic versions of the Backstreet Boy&#8217;s top hits. After 2 hours Adam asked of there were any request, many asked for him to stop or at least play good music for a room full of men. Adam then got upset and decided that people don\u2019t understand his music and played a cash game instead. Again he lost a ton of money while whistling \u201cI want it that way\u201d. We are all sure the way he wanted it.<\/li>\n<li>And his finest \/ lowest moments was bringing in the player that fake gazimed Mike after he runner runnered a set and beat Dan L.\u00a0 Many believe this could have been the worst addition of a poker player as Pete once held (and still holds the legitimate) record for fastest knockout. Dan T has he the capabilities of taking over this role but only time will tell.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So we say good bye to the best worst player in BB Poker history and many hope that he will be back next year. Not for his playing style, but for the fact he doesn\u2019t show up and pays his money.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As many of you know, Adam has decided to step away from the Big Boy Poker Tour and focus on his officiating of junior boys volleyball games instead.
