The WPT Boot Camp promise to you: All your poker questions answered...guaranteed.

WPT Boot Camp is risk-free with our 100% Money Back Guarantee and convenient with our Payment Plan!

Learn the tournament poker strategies that separate players who cash from players who win…and players who squeak into the final table from those who arrive as chip leader.

Our brand-new Tournament Camp 2.0 gives you the latest in cutting-edge tournament strategy.  This camp delves into tournament concepts so crucial that they affect virtually every decision you make. Many of these concepts are widely misunderstood, misrepresented, or go completely unrecognized.  As a result, you may not even realize what a critical role they should play in your decision-making.   In this camp, you will be shown a new and detailed framework to guide all your tournament decisions, helping you to gain a huge edge over your opponents.

Tournament Camp 2.0 has been built from the ground up, offering brand-new material and strategies not found in previous Tournament Camps or Clinics. 

You’ll be learning from the world’s most experienced team of poker educators. They’ll share their knowledge, explain their strategies, and help you to think like a pro. Our pros love teaching and are fully committed to helping you maximize your poker potential.  You’ll have access to our team of instructors for a full day, including class time, labs, breaks, and lunch. 

Learn How a Pro Thinks About Tournaments

WPT Boot Camps are interactive experiences where you’ll hear lively presentations from a panel of pros on essential poker topics, illustrated by hand animations and key examples from TV. When one pro is teaching, the others will jump in to share details about their own play.  You’ll get a chance to see how different players approach the same situations, helping you to tailor our material to your own individual style. During each section you’ll have the chance to participate in question-and-answer sessions, which will deepen your understanding of what you’ve learned. 

Our curriculum is designed to prepare you for every challenge you’ll encounter in a tournament.  We’ll help you develop the patience, courage, and determination that can only come from a deep understanding of the game.

Experience Total-Immersion Poker Training

Tournament poker requires walking a fine line.  Sometimes you have to be patient and wait for the right cards.  Other times you have to make a move based solely on the situation, regardless of the hand you’re dealt.  Our pros will help you discover how to distinguish between those two situations and learn which factors to consider in making your decisions.  You’ll discover mistakes you didn’t even know you were making and be amazed at how much further you can take your game when you spend an entire day studying, talking, and practicing poker under the guidance of professional players. 

Whatever your tournament experience, Tournament Camp 2.0 can jump-start your game to a higher level, allowing you to play with confidence and skill. Learn how to think like a winning player by mastering these key aspects of tournament play:

  • Learn how experts play tournaments compared to average players
  • Learn to put your opponent on a range of hands
  • Accumulate chips—even when you’re not getting good cards
  • Understand how your stack and your opponents’ stacks should affect your play
  • Learn when to protect your stack and when to ramp up your aggression
  • Learn how to avoid all-ins while still playing aggressively
  • Discover how to create fold equity and use it to build a big stack
  • Understand how pot odds and implied odds should affect your tournament decisions
  • Learn when you’re pot-committed…and when your opponent is
  • Develop specific techniques for exploiting the bubble
  • Adjust for short-handed play
  • Understand when you can anticipate a call from an opponent
  • Find out when you can successfully min-raise…and when you can’t
  • Avoid giving yourself difficult postflop decisions
  • Develop a clear strategy for short-stack play
  • Identify good situations to bluff…and learn to avoid bad ones
  • Adjust for play on the bubble

You can ask questions about the material throughout every presentation. On breaks, at lunch, and at the end of the day, you’re welcome to bring questions to any of our pros. They teach because they love helping players like you improve their play. This is your chance to get inside their minds, learning the strategies that have made them some of the best players in the world.

Most players win only when they get good cards. Great players win by using great strategy. That’s why top players consistently go deep in tournaments—and now you can, too.
