Seminar Announcement: Maximizing Value (North America-Friendly Time Slot)

The next Thinking Poker tournament seminar will focus on Maximizing Value and will be held on Thursday, March 8 from 8-10 PM Eastern (New York) time. Participants will learn when to slowplay, how to build a pot with monster hands, and how to squeeze thin value out of marginal hands. In addition to the seminar itself, all participants receive a syllabus of recommended study materials to help prepare for the session and apply newly acquired skills in their future play.

These seminars are pre-scheduled, small-group discussions focused on the most common mistakes and skills gaps that I see in my NLHE tournament students. Each two-hour seminar costs $150 per person and is capped at five participants, to enable individualized attention and opportunities for everyone to ask questions and participate in discussions. The content is prepared and the discussion facilitated by me- it’s like an interactive poker video! Best of all, this is my second time offering a seminar on this topic, meaning that the material has been revised and refined with experience and feedback from past participants.

Please note this is an Intermediate to Advanced seminar. In other words, even relatively advanced players will benefit from this unique take on how to think about extracting value, but the pacing will be such that intermediate players can follow along comfortably. We will assume that you’re comfortable visualizing both your own and other players’ ranges and thinking about how your actions will influence those ranges. The seminar will help you practice and refine these techniques, providing mental shortcuts and a thorough process for determining the most profitable way to play strong hands in a variety of contexts.
