WPT Boot Camp Announces Initial Locations for Poker Instruction

FT. LAUDERDALE, Florida – (PRESS RELEASE) -- Ever wish you knew the poker pros' secrets for winning multimillion-dollar pots? Before now the only way to gain such experience was to invest thousands of dollars and hours in high-stakes poker. But when the new two-day WPT Boot Camp comes to town, people will have the chance to learn directly from poker champions and the World Poker Tour hosts, picking up enough card-playing skills to put them on the "Fast Track to the Final Table."

A fantasy camp for poker enthusiasts, WPT Boot Camp is designed to give amateurs an intensive immersion in poker strategy over a weekend. Instruction comes from WPT commentators Mike Sexton and Vincent Van Patten, as well as poker expert Alex "The Insider" Outhred, the man behind the camera who analyzes all hands played at WPT Final Tables. This core instructional group is augmented with a slate of poker champions. A portion of the coursework is also based on Sexton's new book, WPT: Shuffle Up and Deal (HarperCollins) being released in March. WPT Boot Camp students will receive a copy of the book upon graduation -- while supplies last.
