Poker VT, Daniel Negreanu’s virtual poker training website, has just announced the addition of an innovative new ‘Advanced Tournament Poker’ training course created by online poker phenom Jason ‘JCarver’Somerville.
The course is based on one of 2010’s biggest online tournaments, Event #37 of the PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP). The $2,100 tournament boasted a field of 914 players and a prize pool of over $1,800,000. Somerville, the ultimate victor of the event, booked the biggest win of his highly profitable online career. The event’s final table hosted some of online poker’s toughest professionals.
“This course is the most comprehensive poker training material I have seen in my years of studying the game”, says Somerville. “The tournament took 19 hours to complete, and I show you my thought process behind every single hand of consequence. It’s one of a kind, and the exact type of course I wish I had when I was learning the game.”
The massive course mixes both hand by hand commentary, as well as poker concept vignettes that will help Poker VT members gain insight into Jason’s exact thought process behind some of the most advanced poker concepts ever revealed to a public audience.
“This course doesn’t stop at teaching you how to play a poker hand, this course teaches you how to think like a real poker player” says Somerville. “Honestly, I may have revealed too much.”
The course covers topics such as early stage tournament strategy, advanced bluffing concepts, blocker cards and how to use them, assigning an opponent an exact hand range, polarization bets, as well as an extended section on both late stage tournament and heads up play that reveals the thought process behind every single hand played or folded.
Somerville, who boasts over $3,000,000 in tournament winnings online and live,started heads-up play with a 6-1 deficit against one of the top online tournamentplayers. He reveals his entire strategy that helped him recover and ultimately takedown the tournament.
The course is only available on Poker VT, debuting on January 6th, 2011with new sections being released weekly thereafter. Check out PokerVT.comfor more information and Facebook.com/pokervt for an official preview or www.youtube.com/PokerVTvideos.
