LAS VEGAS, NV, March 15, 2008 – Daniel Negreanu, 3 time World Series of Poker bracelet winner, announced today the launch of ‘A Weekend with Daniel Negreanu’ – a poker player’s dream weekend of private lessons, tournament and high end hospitality.

The weekend takes place on August 8-10, 2008 and is geared towards providing poker players with intimate, one-on-one poker training as well as an exclusive Las Vegas experience. The weekend is limited to only 18 players, ensuring a highly personalized experience.

“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”.

Attendees arriving in Las Vegas will be greeted at the airport by a limousine and will be driven to The Venetian, their home for the weekend. After checking in, they will board an SUV limousine for a BBQ at Negreanu’s Las Vegas home. 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.

Over the course of the following two days, Daniel will lead the group in seminars designed specifically to improve their game, both from a strategic and tactical standpoint. Seminar topics range from the technical aspects of pots 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 divide into two groups, and will participate in live workshops work with Daniel at the poker tables. It is here that Daniel can assess each player’s game, identify individual weaknesses and help correct them. The third day will culminate in a private, 18 person poker tournament where the attendees can put their newfound skills to the test.

“If you’re a serious poker player looking to improve your game, I invite you to join us for ‘A Weekend with Daniel Negreanu”, said Daniel, “Not only will you leave a better player, but you will have a great time and live the life of a high stakes poker player”.

‘A Weekend with Daniel Negreanu is limited to only 18 participants and costs $15,000 per player. For more information or to reserve your spot, call 702-387-2353 or email weekendwithdaniel@gmail.com

This is well within the Balloon Guy scale though for time with DN.

1hr on phone @ $1125 (or something) = $18.75/min

or

3 days for $15k approx 24 hrs in total = $10.41/min

ship it, imo.

Did this a couple years ago - the 15k. Was a great time, if DN is smart he will include his brother in this he was hilarious.

This isn't 100% for sure but I think that a certain online poker site might be buying some of the spots and giving their players a chance to win them.

But you forget that I am a non-drinker.

Deduct 6 hours each night

I like 8 hours of sleep

Deduct another 8 hours per day

My mind wanders after 1 hour

Deduct 6 hours roughly

I doubt a vegetarian BBQ will fill my stomach

Deduct 2 hours each day looking for In-n-Out

I fold preflop 85% of the time

Deduct 2 hours each day of hands on instruction

I will need to smoke at least 4 cigars a day

Deduct 4 hours per day

That leaves me with a grand total of 1 hour if I get there early for $15,000

I already got this for $1250.
