Learn the tournament poker strategies that separate players who cash from players who win…and players who squeak into the final table from those who arrive as chip leader.
The brand-new Tournament Camp 2.0 designed by the pros at WPT Boot Camp gives players the latest in cutting-edge tournament strategy. Held January 26 – 27, 2013, at the Hilton in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, this camp delves into tournament concepts so crucial that they affect virtually every decision a player makes during an event. Many of these concepts are widely misunderstood, misrepresented, or go completely unrecognized. As a result, poker players may not even realize what a critical role they should play in their decision-making. In this camp, attendees will be shown a new and detailed framework to guide all their tournament decisions, helping them gain a huge edge over their opponents.
WPT Boot Camp Tournament Camp 2.0 has been built from the ground up, offering brand-new material and strategies not found in previous WPT Boot Camp Tournament Camps or Clinics.
The world’s most experienced team of poker educators will share their knowledge, explain their strategies, and help players to think like a pro. WPT Boot Camp pros love teaching and are fully committed to helping everyone maximize their poker potential. Attendees will have access to our team of instructors for two full days, including class time, labs, breaks, and meals.
