Poker Boot Camps, are they worth it?
I've been considering attending either a WPT or WSOP boot camp, and I was wondering:
1) Has anyone from here ever attended one of these? 2) If so, what was your experience like? 3) Did it help you better yourself in Poker? 4) If you attended both a WPT and WSOP Boot camp, which one did you find was a better run program? 5) Lastly, do either of them give you any one on one coaching? |

Did I maybe post this in the wrong forum? It doesn't appear that many here have been to poker boot camps.
What forum would someone suggest to repost this, where I might get a better response? |

This is going to sound very elitist and is a massive generalization, but i wouldn't pay to learn from live pros when there are a ton of guys who will answer your questions around here for free.
I pretty much wouldn't pay to learn from live pro's period unless they collected some insane line up of Ivey, Greenstein, Baldwin or something. |

i have not attended a bootcamp, but i would if the teachers included bond, deeb, etc.
Imagine the evening festivities. Hey wait...this is actually not a bad idea. |

boot camps are more for poker tourists. just get private coaching; it's less money and you can get a much better coach.

Re: Poker Boot Camps, are they worth it?
not once in my life have i ever even considered going to a WPT bootcamp.
I mean, the intent of a bootcamp is for people to spend money to listen to these pros run seminars. frankly, for the amount they charge their advice is garbage. you should spend your money instead on something like cardrunners, PXFactor, or stoxpoker. |

These cost what like 3k?... You could buy like 10 hrs of Ansky coaching for that... Much better deal imo...

Re: Poker Boot Camps, are they worth it?
seriously, for 3k worth ansky could turn you into a big winner at any game except maybe MSNL/HSNL, and at least enough to have 6 fig years if you have a simple grasp of poker.
and instead people give 3k to annie duke so she can tell them about "counting outs". sweet! |
