Three-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Daniel Negreanu wants you to come over to his house. Negreanu is hosting ‘A Weekend with Daniel Negreanu’ from August 8 – 10 giving 18 poker players a rare chance to learn from one of the game’s top players.
“I’m very excited to offer poker players an immersive weekend of poker where I can give individual attention to each player’s game” said Negreanu, “The fact that the weekend is limited to 18 players will guarantee that I can work with each and every player and improve their game dramatically”.
The weekend will include one-on-one poker training and an exclusive Las Vegas experience. Camp attendees will be picked up at the airport by limousine and will be driven to their home for the weekend, The Venetian. That night Negreanu will host a BBQ at his Las Vegas home giving players a chance to get to know him and the other attendees.
During the days Daniel will provide the group with instruction designed to take their game to the next level. Topics that will be covered during the two days include the technical aspects of pot odds and implied odds to the more strategic lessons including bluffing, reading opponents, tournament strategy, cash game strategy and online poker concepts.
In addition to the seminars, the attendees will work with Daniel at the poker tables so that he can assess each player’s game, identify individual weaknesses and help correct them. The final day will culminate in a private, 18 person poker tournament where the attendees can put their newfound skills to the test.
On the second evening, attendees will live the life of a high stakes poker pro with a VIP night on the town, complete with a private dinner and exclusive table service at one of the city’s top nightclubs.
“A Weekend with Daniel Negreanu” is limited to only 18 participants and costs $15,000 per player. Bluff readers qualify for a $500 discount – simply mention you saw this article when booking. For more information or to reserve your spot, call 702-387-2353. |

I highly doubt the weekend would strictly be worth 15k in the technical sense (although it could very well be, I've found Negreanu's books/interviews/videos did raise my playing level at least a little), if I had the money to spend, this sounds like a deal. People drop more than 15k in Vegas for a weekend worth of high roller treatment, so if you're getting that, plus a chance to hang out for a weekend with Negreanu, have some tasty BBQ, and play some poker, that sounds like good times to me. Negreanu has a reputation as one of the most personable players in the game, I'd spend a weekend with him any time over say, Phil Hellmuth, even if Phil is the better player.
And with the $500 discount, I only need $14,200 more in order to go! |
