Come August, poker aficionados can immerse themselves in an entire weekend of intensive poker training led by poker champ Phil Hellmuth. The four day boot camp, tagged "Camp Hellmuth," will convene at Binion's Horseshoe Casino in Las Vegas, the traditional headquarters of the World Series of Poker (WSOP). Although the actual training camp will be held at Binion's, participants will stay at the Strip's Caesars' Palace.
The seminar will feature intensive theoretical strategy tutorials, in addition to hands-on training, culminating in a no-limit poker tournament, which will boast a prize pool of up to $100,000, depending on the number of attendees. Aside from Hellmuth, a number of additional poker allstars will offer their expertise. The roster includes poker legends T. J. Cloutier and John Bonetti, in addition to Barry and Jeff Shulman, David Williams, Josh Arieh and Evelyn Ng.
Learning from the pros, however, does not come cheap, and Camp Hellmuth is no exception at $3,499. Nevertheless, a number of discounts are available. Players registering before June 1st can sign up for $150 less and discounts are also available for participants who bring a friend to the poker camp. Players not needing accommodations will also have registrations fees slashed.
