Sounds interesting, but not for the price.

When I read the title I immediately thought of boot camp with Phil as the drill sergeant. "Out of your bunks, donkeys!!!!!"

How do you think these guys can afford their lifestyle? Suck it out the little people who worship them. You are paying $200 for the lessons and $1800 for getting it live from the people you see on TV. For $2000, this should be an inclusive weekend not just the session. You get those names and people wanting to play poker coming to town, the least the casino could do is comp some room or reduce the rates.

For $2000 and expenses some of these pros would come to your home town and host a tournament for you, lol. Why not try it reverse and then you get one of these guys for a whole weekend on your terms.

I compare this to fantasy baseball camps that people go to. You get to send the weekend with professional and talk to them but not much else.

Have you ever seen his articles? They're hilarious. " Chris now called and raised another $80,000, and the game was on: talk about pressure on my reading ability! "

" I cannot tell you exactly how or why I thought that, but my reading abilities were very strong all tournament long. In fact, my reading abilities had allowed me to make it this far, so I wasn't going to dog them now"

"In just calling his raise I put pressure on my reading abilities, because I knew that there was a high probability that Chris would bet on the flop"

(these three all from the same article)
