    I have always wanted to goto a live poker seminar/camp hosted by a group of professional players. How would I go about finding something like this? Has anyone gone to one of them? What were your thoughts/reactions? Worth it?

    Any advice or feedback would be appreciated.

    My summer training sessions were a great success over the past month. I will be continuing with group training sessions throughout the rest of the year.

    The rate will be $5,000 for 5 days of intensive training; non-negotiable. Classes will include six students. I will be bringing in a student fluent in my system who will be there to assist in the training. The entire session will be in a state of the art training facility here in Las Vegas, specifically designed for maximizing your learning experience.

    The weeks which I am running these courses are as follows. <SPAN id=lw_1253040623_2 class=yshortcuts>October 19th to 23rd</SPAN>; <SPAN id=lw_1253040623_3 class=yshortcuts>November 16th to 20th</SPAN>; <SPAN id=lw_1253040623_4 class=yshortcuts>December 7th to 11th</SPAN>.

    The schedule for the week will be as follows:

    Day 1:
    11am to 12pm Arrivals
    <SPAN id=lw_1253040623_5 class=yshortcuts>12pm to 1pm</SPAN> Introduction

    Day 2 through 4:
    10am to 2pm Pre-recorded tournament review (teacher's assistant).
    <SPAN id=lw_1253040623_11 class=yshortcuts>2pm to 4pm</SPAN> Lunch over Q&A with The Maven.
    4pm to 12am Watching The Maven play MTT'S online.

    Day 5:
    10am to 2pm Students have the option to play MTT's to implement the strategies
    gained over the last 4 days - unsupervised.
    2pm to 4pm Lunch over Q&A with The Maven.
    4pm to 11pm Watching The Maven play MTT'S online.
    <SPAN id=lw_1253040623_12 class=yshortcuts>11pm to 12am</SPAN> Review student hand histories

    Thank you for your interest in training with me. Making my students better players is my top priority; training students is a job I enjoy, am good at, and take pride in.

    I was at the maven's training center a month ago. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions about my experience.

    I guess my biggest question is if it was worth the $5000. That's a lot of money.
