Chris “Fox” Wallace

Chris Wallace, known to the poker world simply as Fox, is a professional poker player, poker coach, and widely respected theorist and author on the game. He co-authored No Limits: the Fundamentals of No-Limit Holdem and every month he writes a column called The Online Fox which appears in Poker Pro, Poker Pro Europe, and Poker Pro Online magazines. He has also written for Deal magazine, twoplustwo online magazine, and multiple websites including PokerSoftware.com and Blind Straddle Online Magazine. Fox has been a regular feature on the front page of PocketFives.com since it’s inception and his piece on bankroll management remains their most popular article nearly three years after it’s publication. He founded PokerFox.net, one of the first poker training sites to hit the internet and is a long-time coach at PokerXFactor.com.

Adam Stemple

Adam Stemple hasn’t had a regular job since 1987.  A professional poker player, musician, novelist, and web designer, he’s the definition of “multi-preneur.”  He cofounded PokerFox.net with Chris and wrote No Limits with him as well.  On his own, he has 4 novels out, a multitude of short stories, an even bigger multitude of CDs, a growing multitude of web clients, and one first-place trophy from the Fall Poker Classic in MN.

Dr. Alan Schoonmaker

Dr. Schoonmaker revolutionized poker thinking with his debut poker book, The Psychology of Poker. Already an accomplished psychiatrist and writer, he dissected the mind of both the player and their opponent and showed people how they were often working against their own best interests at the table. Al’s portions of the seminars are some of the most important, because you can learn all the strategy you want, but if you don’t understand yourself and why you play the way you do, none of it is going to help.

Brett “gank” Jungblut

Not everyone can make it playing poker online AND live, but Gank can. Brett Jungblutt has won over a million dollars in online tournaments, and nearly half a million live. Oh yeah, and he has a WSOP bracelet. In fact, he’s cashed 15 times in the World Series, as well as being ranked in the top five at PocketFives. He’s also an experienced teacher, having recorded instructional videos for PokerFox.net (now part of PokerXFactor) and his own Pro Poker School. We’re very glad to have him aboard as our featured tournament pro this Vegas trip.
