Tournament Poker Boot Camps!

Postby Garth Kay » Mon Nov 05, 2007 1:00 pm

I've recently being approached by several players to conduct some poker info or teaching sessions.
I am a capable poker player and I am strong in some areas and lacking in others but I don't mind talking poker and teaching people the finer points to the game.
I have good references, I can list them if you like!

Anyways, I have spoken to a few poker pro's I know and a number of other people, and what I really want to know is whether anyone is interested in undergoing some serious poker training.

There would be three levels:
Beginner
Intermediate
Advanced

Each would be an 8 hour long day with lunch supplied.
Cost to the players would be $199 for beginner and intermediate, whilst it would be $299 for advanced.

Also included in that cost would be several poker titles (with a retail of up to $250, depending on which level) and educational DVD's.

Just interested to see what sort of feedback this would get and whether it would be worthwhile to organize.

I like this idea, although during the week would absolutely suck for me.

Other than needing to know well in advance what date/time, I'd be pretty interested in this.
Pardon me, but I think you'll find that's a shovel. See you next Tuesday!

It would be a Saturday or Sunday type of thing.
I would need to give some guys a full month in advance and it couldn't be until after Aussie Millions.

I think this is a great idea.

The only thing I say is for you to more clearly define the things being shown at each level. I consider myself a beginner but would be pissed to pay $199 to sit and listen to the hand rankings and how blinds work (ie. how beginner is beginner)
